Day 40 : Show me the way to Amarillo
20 hours of fun: Overnight Greyhound Fort Worth to Flagstaff via Amarillo. Amarillo bus station seems to be the place to be at 2.30am! We got some sleep despite having to keep getting of the bus for re-fuelling etc. The scenery going through New Mexico and into Arizona is beautifully barren and goes on and on beyond comprehension. The landscape is so flat with loads of hills that look like lots of Ulurus. Somehow we have reached 5000ft without having noticed any sort of incline.
Flagstaff, Arizona: Seems to be a really cool place with dramatic mountains in the backdrop. Lots of laid back bars and microbreweries near our downtown hostel. The hostel we are staying in for the next 3 days is really nice.
Animal count: A family of some sort of gopher or prairie dog yet to be identified (write in if you identify it!)

ReplyDeleteSorry, post-botch due to retarded blog misreading. Not sure there are different species of Prairie Dog. Never heard them being called anything else.
