Though I'm Canadian, I'm a Route 66 SUPERFAN! I've traveled much of it at one time or another and photographed so much of the unique parts of it!!! It's truly an important part of Americana.
It's wonderful that you came to my city, St. Louis, and the surrounding area! The Lincoln sites in Springfield are amazing, and the Lincoln Library and Museum have very well-designed exhibits. I realized that I had not been to Hermann in a while, and I needed to go back! The Midwest is a very special part of the U.S., with lovely people and interesting history!
Hello from Michigan, USA. Just enjoying your video on Rt. 66. On your next trip to the US, please try to visit The Henry Ford Museum, and Greenfield Village in Dearborn, Michigan. I'm sure you would enjoy it.
Marie, when you were visiting Arizona and driving on Interstate 40 you were on the old Route 66 which still exists along side the Interstate in places. El Mirage, Arizona
The American writer John Steinbeck called Route 66 “the Mother Road” as it took many jobless of the Great Depression (1930’s) to the promised land of California. Steinbeck wrote a great novel called The Grapes of Wrath of people fleeing the Dust Bowl of Oklahoma while using Route 66.
I absolutely love your videos! You should check out Michigan and the Great Lakes, also located in the Midwest. Mackinaw Island, and Frankenmuth are absolutely beautiful. Detroit is the automotive capital of the US. I know you love Ford Mustangs, so you can tour the Ford Museum and Greenfield Village nearby. I moved to Arizona years ago but was born and raised in beautiful Michigan which was a french settlement.
And all of those old trinkets at the Litchfield Museum are a hot commodity here in the antique trade market. Everyone wants to get a piece of historic USA, in our own country. There are TV programs here dedicated to guys and gals driving all over the states with tips on where to find garages and storehouses loaded with old dusty antiques that they rummage through and make offers to owners. The stuff they find sometimes is amazing.
So glad you got some more stampage in your book. Springfield has my favorite presidential museum. I can't say there aren't any better because I've haven't done them all. From and back to St. Louis makes for a long day. I noticed your Mickey T shirt. Walt was born in Chicago. His family spent years in Marceline and then Kansas City. Back to Chi town and perhaps some WWI activities in France with the Red Cross and back to KC where he met Mickey. The point is Marceline is about the size of Hermann, and there is a museum and childhood home. KC and Chicago probably have places too. I don't know. Anyway, I had some college friends from Marceline, and we never talked about Mickey and Walt. That's another curly W.
You are a very loving person that I want to welcome you back to the USA. I started following you when you took us on a tour to Normandy. As a military veteran (not of WWII) you hooked me when you cried for all the allied hero’s buried there and especially when you realized their age. You feel like family to me and yet we have never personally met. God Bless you!
It's awesome! I recommend it! They have preserved not only his house, but the whole neighborhood he lived in; several blocks. Also his tomb is something every American should visit. Goosebumps when you see it.
I absolutely love your videos :) I’ve said it before and I say it now. I love your mind. So much fun experiencing the world with you. Thank you for being who you are. Pls don’t stop, and pls always share.
Have you considered Denver or the Pacific Northwest for trips. PNW has Seattle,Vancouver and Portland…and endless trees…volcanos too! Denver (Mile high city) has everything, mountains, mining towns, old west, Red Rocks. You would love both destinations.
You should take a trip down to the Ozarks, SE Missouri area. Spend a day at Silver Dollar City theme park, in Branson MO. The shows, the rides, the food, and the feeling that you've stepped back in time to pioneer days, I think you would enjoy that immensely.
5:26 I imagine the drive in car speakers still work, but likely they also will broadcast over the FM band as well, so you can listen with the car radio as well. The broadcast has a limited range of about 1km, though.
Hi Marie, you are really seeing the true America and i hope you find it as beautiful as we Americans do. I think its great your getting to experience all these wonderful places in our country. You made me chuckle from your comment about shoveling snow one day and wearing t-shirts the next, there are days you get to door that all by sunset that time of year. Cant wait for your next post, but just remember.....stay happy, stay healthy ,and stay safe......❤ from fla usa
Marie, thank you for visiting Abraham Lincoln's home and grave in Springfield. He has always been my hero. But more than that, I always find it interesting that when you go to the place where someone was born, or grew up, or lived, or is buried, it reminds you that this person was real, and was once alive. They are not just someone in a book. It brings you closer to them.
The Lincoln museum looked really well done! That's a place I would definitely like to check out sometime. It was very heartwarming to hear that Lincoln would bring stray cats home, too. A true gentleman! I'm also glad to see you got to try Culver's and Dippin Dots! Two staples of my childhood.
I have to thank you, Marie for as you say 'visiting the real America'. On a business trip to Los Angeles, I managed to have breakfast with a group of German tourists who told me they were on a trip to 'see America'. I asked what was on their itinerary. They said their tour included stops in New York City, Los Angeles and Las Vegas before flying back to Germany. I had to tell them that they were not 'seeing America'. It takes time away from the big cities and spending time in the heartland to 'see the real America'. Thank you for taking the time to see the 'real America'.
I actually disliked that comment, as someone who born raised in Virginia, lived in Iowa 12 years and now Las Vegas. It is all "real america" hate that sentiment.
@@mellifluousthoughts1395 What I dislike is our beautiful country being represented internationally by the dirty, uninspired, broken cities of NYC and LA. It’s no wonder the rest of the world hates us, when they visit they only go to those two places. I would hate us too if that was my only experience of America.
When my wifes father came into town, both are French, I took them to Springfield on our way back to St. Louis from Chicago. We didn't have time to visit the museum but we got lunch and visited Lincolns grave. Its cool to see it again from another French perspective.
Thanks for visiting my hometown the place I was raised and still live in Springfield Illinois the vast majority of tourists just visit the big cities on either coast it's really great that you're seeing and enjoying the real American Midwest. We have a twin drive-in theater at an amusement park called "Knights Action Park" here in Springfield if you're really interested in going to one you can pick which movie you want to see...check it out online.
My hometown, I was born and raised in Springfield, ill. If that was the 66 drive-in, where the grass is in front of the screen, there used to be a playground there... Very cool seeing it all again... Thanks M...
I do route 66 from Oklahoma City to LA in my Jeep with the top down every few years. easily my favorite road trip. diversions up to moab, sedona and tahoe, occasionally. you should check those spots out. nothing like them in europe! well, maybe there's some nice mountain lakes like tahoe in the alps, but i promise you'll never see trees like the sequoias in austria!
You weren't far from New Salem, it was where Lincoln owned a store and it has a lot of artifacts from Lincoln's era. What you enjoyed was what we call "Americana". It is little things that were common in everyday life in rural and small town America.
I enjoy learning about my country thru your eyes. Things I didn't know as I have never been to those places. I hope you stay long enough to go to the drive in
1st! Bonjour Marie! New subscriber! Je parle peu français Je parle peu anglais Je parle Filipino (Tagalog) I went to France 🇫🇷 last year from December 27th-December 29th to celebrate my birthday (December 28th). The French food in France was delicious. I went to the Louvre Pyramid and Arc De Triomphe on December 27 last year and on my birthday took a photo op with the Eiffel Tower and went up it! Merci/Salamat po France 🇫🇷 for making my birthday a memorable that I will never ever forget. Lastly, France 🇫🇷 is my favorite country!
You did a marvelous job! I've been to al of these places, and you nailed it! Thanks! Chicago soon please! :) (See the Art Institute!) This IS the real America!
I forgot about dipping dots we used to get them as kids when we went to the zoo and water park here in Columbus Ohio. But havent been there in ages so i haven't had them in a long time forgot they were a thing lol.
Museums are fantastic! As long as they tell the whole story, which is kind of hard to find nowdays. I have never been to Culver personally, but I have heard that the Cheese Curds are really good!
I remember going to the Lincoln museum. And standing next to Lincoln statue. We were about the same heights. Lol So glad you got to enjoy yourself and learn a little history.
Thank you so much for sharing your trips. As always it was all amazing. So happy you are having such great adventures. Stay safe and have fun most of all.
Heya. I really enjoy your videos. You have a fresh take of every place you explore. As you mentioned at the start, so different that you had snow in New Hampshire and then you are at nearly 80 degrees. The country has so much to offer. I feel that with your journey you could be a teacher of history.
I love every second of this video, including some new editing and video twists you added to this work, as you are so imaginative and professional Marie 🤗🤩! You know the things that are happening right now in Austin for me, which have kept me from commenting on this or your previous video, but I promise you I will do both as soon as is possible 😥😢🙏. Thank you for this gift and for you, and please stay safe (hopefully still enjoying Mustangs) 💛💛🥰🥰!
I do love my cross-country drives. Sad to imagine how many of us live and die without ever getting to experience that. Happy for you! Great music selection to kick things off, too. Sounded like a take-off of Johnny Cash. What happened the FBS at the lunch break? Now I expect to see it!
Marie, those wild horses at 12:54 are Mustang horses. That's where the name was taken for the cars you like. In the back of the cars you'll see the Mustang emblem. 🐎
Excuse the correction but the horses weren't wild or Mustangs. They are behind an electric fence. The buckskin is a quarterhorse and the other is a paint.

The first P-51s that saw combat were flown by the Royal Air Force, who named the P-51, the Mustang. Letter P stands for Pursuit.

Marie, as you have traveled across America have you been surprised at how much French influence you see that remains in modern America, or was it about what you imagined there would be?
Marie the next time to come to the US consider coming to Ohio, I know you like aviation we have the United States Air Force and Space museum in Dayton the Wright Brothers plane at Carillon Park in Dayton, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland Lake Erie Cedar Point Amusement Park Kings Island Amusement Park. Then we two American football teams, two baseball teams, two soccer and one basket ball team
You’re reminding us to not take all the great things in our country for granted, and that we should get out there and go see the sights ourselves! Thank you, Marie! Glad you are having so much fun!
Dippin dots freak me out it's like they shouldn't exist, but I love them for some reason. Culver's Butter Burger is awesome. I'm glad you're having an awesome time here in the USA.

I grew up in Illinois and you passed very near to where I am from. I spent a lot of time in Livingston, Mount Olive, and Litchfield! I have to say though, you missed an important place in Springfield. If you go to Springfield on Old Route 66, you really should have stopped at Cozy Dog. It's a very historic stop on the route.
Bonjour Marie! Always love watching your videos. Culver's burgers are fresh, handmade, and very good. Their crinkle cut fries are kinda bland (Arby's has better IMO,) and their most famous thing is their Cheese Curds. Did you get to try those? A few things... Lincoln the second L isn't pronounced, typically it's pronounced as Linkohn or Linkon. Pieces is typically pronounced Pee Says. Route is usually pronounced Root like Rootbeer or Boot, with the long O like boo boo. Glad you got to experience some of the Midwest, hope to see you make a trip to Detroit, Chicago, Minneapolis, Indianapolis, and Cincinnati at some point! Bone journee! ~Be Blessed
Hi 👋🤗 Miss Marie !!!! You are Becoming A True Globe 🌎 Trotter 😂😊 🇺🇲 Good Thing you went west vs South Florida was 94 Today ☀️🏝️ and Cooking Already !!! As always the like button ✅ has been Illuminated 😁👍👍😎✨
Love your reaction to our country! But I love your country! I cry when I have to come home from France for many reasons. Dippin Dots was invented just down the road from our house in Curt Jones' garage. Glad you got to see some of the middle of the USA!
Though I'm Canadian, I'm a Route 66 SUPERFAN! I've traveled much of it at one time or another and photographed so much of the unique parts of it!!! It's truly an important part of Americana.
It's nice to see a foreign traveler visiting small town Midwest (where I live) instead of NY or LA.
Right?....the real America👍
Hello from Northern California
Bienvenue to Illinois. My home state. j'aime aussi la France. Glad you liked the Midwest.
When I saw a glimpse of the resturant I knew where you were.
You're where I grew up...sorta...About 60 miles north on 66...Actually you went right there. :)
Thanks for taking us Marie, Lincolns home was interesting...you take care girl..

You went to Culvers and didn't try some frued cheese curds? Oh you're missing out. Try them next time.

I don't think she's been to Louisiana yet.
Bit of trivia. The Simpsons live in Springfield but which state is never told. And I think there are more than a few Springfields in the US.

Buy what did you think of the dipping dots??
you missed new salem illinois .
It is 25 miles away and takes a full half day. A lot of walking. But, worth it see early frontier life.
Pretty sure its illegal to do a U turn on an interstate freeway.
You're sounding like an American - "his grave was 5 minutes away..." not, "2 km" or whatever.
You’re reminding us to not take all the great things in our country for granted, and that we should get out there and go see the sights ourselves! Thank you, Marie! Glad you are having so much fun!

Love your reaction to our country! But I love your country! I cry when I have to come home from France for many reasons. Dippin Dots was invented just down the road from our house in Curt Jones' garage. Glad you got to see some of the middle of the USA!
I hope you visited Chicago while in the midwest, one of America's most beautiful cities.
You have the coolest videos Frenchy. You been to way more places in the USA than I.
This the real America that many do not show! Thanks for highlighting it!
"Real America" is both rural and city.
