Route 66: New Mexico’s Neon, Dinosaurs, and the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta

from Curious Caravan · host Places.Travel

The Route 66 journey continues on Curious Caravan as Jason and Lizette head into New Mexico, where the Mother Road shifts into something deeper, older, and more layered. Joined again by Jack Zanger and Ronan Tattersall from Route 66: The Mother Road, this episode explores a stretch of Route 66 where neon glows against desert skies, dinosaur bones surface from ancient earth, and Indigenous history stretches back thousands of years. The Route 66 series on Curious Caravan continues west, one state at a time.
