Located along a remote stretch of old Route 66, Roy's Cafe and Motel is a notable roadside attraction in the ghost town of Amboy, California. With all the characteristics of a quintessential mid-century pit stop, the location is now more of an art installation than a bustling roadside business. Most of the surrounding buildings are abandoned in Amboy, however it's enough of a draw to attract a trickle of onlookers who are willing to pull off this rough stretch of the Mother Road to have a look around.
One of the most incredible displays at the museum is the Saturn V Dynamic Test Vehicle within the Davidson Center for Space Exploration. The rocket is elevated above the floor on its side with the separated stages and engines exposed. It's an awe-inspiring sight and it gave me the same rush I experienced when first viewing the Space Shuttle Endeavour in Los Angeles. The U.S. Space & Rocket Center truly is a remarkable facility to explore.
