My wife and I did Route 66 from Chicago to St. Louis; that's enough for me. When I lived in LA for a time we meant to hit the end of 66 in San Bernardino but never did.

I think the best parts of the Route are those going through TX, NM and AZ.

Though I say that as somebody for whom those "western"/rocky/deserty looking places were extra enchanting and unfamiliar. So, if you're from the midwest in the first place, I guess it's not the same experience.

The "official" end is in Santa Monica (right before the pier), with a memorial plate for the guy they named the highway after etc.
