Here we are now in Arizona after a little stop in Nevada yesteday. In a little town, Williams and is not that remarkable except for that reason that this is the only town in USA were route 66 is the mainroad through the town. And on this mainroad are old stores, restaurants and coxboysaloons. All in the inspirtation of the wild west. Here you can see the men walk in cowboyboots with great cowboyhats and having a big buckle in their belt ! And they are orginal and have been like this all their lives. Very nice to see and experience this as I have always been a little cowboy myself. I came close today to buy me an incrediable cool leatherjacket with fringe and a nice cowboyhat too! But sorry for me, the jacket didnt fit and I have already to many hats at home! I am hoping that there will be a real countrymood and music in the bars tonight because that is my favourite music. Bad that we in Iceland cannot hear more countrymusic in the radio and then I mean really new and good musicians, not oldies like Kenny and Dolly. But today we went to see the famous Hower Dam and that was great. What a great building and unbeliable that it took only 4 years to build it, from 1931-1935. Likley this dam was builded to create electricity for Las Vegas and all the lights there. After looking at the dam and taking photos we rode into a highway and therefrom into the old orginalroute 66. It was really nice and we rode through mountains and plains and somewhere it was only the desert. It was extremely hot in the early day but fortunally for us the sun disapperad later in the day and it got cooler. Harleybrother are so great and it is privilege for us to ride with those experienced travel and adventurmen. Many great stories from the old days in Iceland were they travelled in the higlands on primitive jeeps and other equipments and it is really nice to hear all this. We didnt ride all the way to Grand Canyon today but instead we will go there tomorrow. We just ended having a nice dinner with huge spareribs grilled outside on a huge coalgrill and a nice bear with it. Cannot expect things to be better. But enough for now.
