Amarillo



We stayed at the Big Texan Motel on Route 66, which has a famous restaurant, which was featured on Man Vs Food because of their 72 oz steak! If you eat it, including the baked potato, roll, salad and prawn cocktail within an hour, you get it for free. I'd tried to get Laura to do the challenge, but she was too scared to sit at the table on her own, so she opted for the 1/4 size challenge, and she couldn't even finish that so turns out it was a good thing that she was too scared, cause we'd have had to pay $72 for the steak!!


The motel itself was great the rooms were themed like a saloon.


Even though she couldn't finish the steak, she still wanted pudding, but I think it pushed her over the edge. It was a good job the hotel was only over the road. Laura still craves that chocolate cake she says its the best she's ever had.




The next day we went to the infamous cadillac ranch. Basically it's 10 cadillacs in the ground, and you can go up and paint whatever you want on them! Was a fun thing to see, and it was free so always a good thing.
