Oct. 23, 2021: Stop at the California Route 66 Museum in Victorville, California. This museum opened in 1995 in the former 5,000 square foot Red Rooster Cafe building. The exhibits are constantly changed. After closure from Covid-19, the California Route 66 Museum is open Friday thru Sunday. One fun fact: The Red Rooster Cafe was used for filming the 1980 movie, "The Jazz Singer" starring Neil Diamond.
Continental Divide, New Mexico is the backbone point of a nation. Though it is not the highest point on Route 66. That honor goes to Brannigan Park on old Route 66 between Bellemont and Parks, Arizona. The Continental Divide is a popular location and has been the site of numerous trading posts down through the years. In 1946 Rittenhouse says the divide is marked by a large sign and there are several establishments located there including The Top O' The World Hotel and Cafe, Great Divide Trading Company, and the Continental Trading Post and grocery. Today the tradition continues with an abundance of establishments designed to entice money out of the tourist's wallet in exchange for priceless momentos; wonderful souvenirs of the road.

5th November 2006: Lewes, East Sussex. The town's most important annual event is Lewes Bonfire - Guy Fawkes Night celebrations on the 5th of November. In Lewes this event not only marks the date of the uncovering of the Gunpowder Plot in 1605, but also commemorates the memory of the seventeen Protestant martyrs.
The current celebrations take the form of a series of torchlit processions through the town. The event is organised by the local bonfire societies, under the auspices of the Lewes Bonfire Council[13]. Lewes itself currently has seven bonfire societies (Nevill Juveniles is a children's society and holds its celebrations a week or two before 5th November; Southover, which disbanded in 1985, reformed in 2005) and a number of nearby towns have their own bonfire societies. The other five local bonfire societies from the town (Cliffe, Borough, Commercial Square, South Street and Waterloo) each proceed on their own route accompanied by a number of other societies from the neighbouring towns.
Each bonfire society has its own traditional costumes (ranging from Tudor dress to Mongol warriors). A number of large effigies are drawn though the streets. Effigies of Guy Fawkes and Pope Paul V[14], who became head of the Roman Catholic Church in 1605, feature every year. In addition, each of the five main local societies creates a topical "tableau" (usually, but not always, representing a human figure or figures), and the Cliffe society displays on pikes the heads (also in effigy) of its current "Enemies of Bonfire", who range from nationally reviled figures to local officials who have attempted to place restrictions on the event. Restrictions are generally ignored by the Societies.
In 2001 an effigy of Osama bin Laden ensured that the annual event received more press attention than usual (it featured on the front page of some national newspapers) as did the Firle Bonfire Society's 2003 choice of a gypsy caravan. To mark the demise of the 17 martyrs, 17 burning crosses are carried through the town, and a wreath-laying ceremony occurs at the War Memorial in the centre of town. A flaming tar barrel is also thrown into the river Ouse; this is said to symbolise the throwing of the magistrates into the river after they read the Riot Act to the bonfire boys in 1847, but may also be an echo of Samhain traditions. The festivities culminate in five separate bonfire displays, where the effigies are destroyed by firework and flame. Up to 80,000 people have been known to attend this local spectacle, coming from all over the South and sometimes further afield.

Articulated buses seem to work quite well in Paris.
Route 115 is an offshoot of the once-mighty route 15, which once ran all the way from East Ham to Ladbroke Grove (and, at times, beyond those termini). However the 15 came in for a lot of change in the late 1980s and the 1990s, including rerouteing via the Tower of London in June 1986. A Monday-Friday service continued to operate between Oxford Circus and East Ham via Bank, renumbered 15b; by 1996 this had been whittled back to an Aldgate - East Ham service (albeit now daily) and it was renumbered 115 on 18th September 1999.
The mainstay of the 115 since its renumbering has been Alexander ALX400-bodied Dennis Tridents, operated variously by West Ham and Upton Park Garages (the latter closed in 2011). In this view on Friday 6th March 18277 pursues 18210 along East India Dock Road, approaching Limehouse; 18210 appears to be running late and has been curtailed at Stepney, Arbour Square, the last official curtailment point before Aldgate.

The barque James Craig was built by Bartram, Haswell & Co. in Sunderland, England in 1874. Originally named Clan Macleod, her maiden voyage was to Peru.
For 26 years she plied the trade routes of the world carrying general cargoes during which period she rounded Cape Horn 23 times. In 1900 she was purchased by Mr J J Craig of Auckland and was used on trans-Tasman trade routes as a general cargo carrier. In 1905 she was re-named James Craig and then a short six years later, in 1911, she was laid up because increasing competition from steam ships made sailing vessels uneconomical. She was then stripped and used as a copra hulk in New Guinea. After the First World War there was an acute shortage of cargo ships. This gave James Craig a new lease of life after being towed from New Guinea to Sydney for re-fitting.

It seems more than a year and a half since the old Route Buses came off the road and so far I've not been back. Here is EBY 536 on one of the last departures on the final night.
