La Posada Hotel

The next stop along the journey brought us to the city of Winslow, Arizona. This town sits along the Historic Route 66, and was a major stop for rail passengers in the golden days of rail travel. We traveled here to visit the La Posada hotel, a recently restored Harvey House which served rail passengers as they waited for the trains to be refueled.

Here I am at the main entrance (facing the highway).

I attempted to talk to this gentleman about other local attractions, but he wasn’t very friendly.
