The Gemini Giant

Sites along Route 66 in Illinois.

One of the MUST sights to see on a Route 66 road trip is the Gemini Giant at the Launching Pad Drive-in located in Wilmington, Illinois.

A little further down Route 66 is Dwight, Illinois with several restored old sites like the Ambler-Beckler Service Station.

Come on over to our sister site for more pictures (the Troll Family thinks the pictures are not as interesting since they are not in them!) and details of our Route 66 road trip - human Route 66 site.
