Ep 5: Route 66 in the Rod Iron
The final episode - we travel through more desert heat and more beautiful mountains to reach the end of Route 66 at the Santa Monica Pier. In just 11 days my dad and I drove our hand made, wrought iron, 1967 Volkswagen Beetle from our home in Canada to the starting point of Route 66 in Chicago, all the way to the End of the Trail in California visiting countless small towns, abandoned towns, roadside attractions and more.
In Episode 5 we leave our Las Vegas detour and rejoin Route 66 as we pass through the tiny, almost ghost town of Amboy, California. We then continue through the desert, pass by Joshua Tree, find a major fuel leak, and stop for a visit with Randy Carlson from Old Bug. Randy is an expert on old Volkswagens and has even owned a few of Rafael Esparza Prieto's original wrought iron beetles from Mexico.
From there we drive the final leg of our journey and head towards the Santa Monica Pier and the End of the Trail sign. Our journey took us 11 days and when we left, we really didn't know what to expect. We had no accommodations booked and no set schedule, we just drove as far as we could each day. We were slowed down by rain and mechanical issues, but also by the iconic Route 66 roadside attractions and then of course a detour to Las Vegas. In the end, our road trip saw us travel over 3,000 miles and through 11 states and 2 countries.
Thank you so much to everyone who helped us complete our road trip along the way, like Randy and Sebastien who drove with us to the Santa Monica Pier and helped film the last leg, the couple in New Mexico who drove back to their house to find us extra wire when we were having electrical issues, the repair shops in Missouri who let us use their tools and equipment and especially the biggest thank you to everyone we saw along the way who waved, stopped to say hi and shared pictures of our journey on Instagram - you helped make our trip that much more special.
This is Episode 5 of our trip. You can watch Episodes 1-4 on our channel youtube.com/traveleatwod and visit us on Instagram as well at instagram.com/traveleatwod.
Special thank you to Sebastien Schmit for the extra LA footage.

Montezuma Hot Springs & Great Sand Dunes National Park
Our family took a trip out west and spent time visiting attractions and national parks across several states. In this video we begin by checking out some natural hot springs in Montezuma, New Mexico before ending the day at the Great Sand Dunes National Park in Colorado.
The hot springs are located about six miles north of the town of Las Vegas, NM ( The hot springs were fun and I do recommend them for a short visit if you are in the area. After spending the morning taking a dip in the hot springs and then wading in the river below, we loaded up the car and drove to Santa Fe for lunch. We enjoyed lunch at the Tune-Up Cafe ( and then drove a few hours to the sand dunes.
On the outskirts of the park is a place called the Great Sand Dunes Oasis where we rented one sled and one board ( When we arrived at the Oasis there was only about two hours until the rentals were due back (around 7:30 PM). Although l liked the Oasis fine it was a little disappointing that they did not offer rentals by the hour; rather charged the full day rate of $20 per item.
The dunes were AMAZING and my whole family really enjoyed it! The surrounding mountains were gorgeous, and the dunes themselves seemed other worldly. Hard to believe this is in Colorado, and definitely felt like we were standing in a small corner of the Sahara. If we had to do it over I would have planned to spend more time at the park. One family I spoke to had come out in the morning to spend several hours before taking a break and returning late afternoon.
Enjoy the footage!
