Today was spent exploring Oklahoma City including Oklahoma State Capitol building, Oklahoma History Center, National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum, and finding Route 66 Centennial Monuments.
We got our morning coffee at Toast & Coffee (actually my second cup as Dad went and got my birthday freebie at Starbucks to have with breakfast at the hotel).
Next we explored the Oklahoma State Capitol, where we also redeemed for the first three keychains for the sections we have already completed in the Oklahoma Route 66 Passport.
We then visited the Oklahoma History Center, where we mainly focused on the Route 66 exhibit and definitely plan to come back and more fully explore it when we return to Oklahoma City for 2028 Olympic softball.
Our next stop was at the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum.
We then visited the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum, which is another museum we only ended up doing parts of and we plan to more fully see in 2028.

As we left the museum, we stopped at the Kicks 66 statue. We then drove to the First Americans Museum and Dad went in to get the stamp for the Oklahoma Route 66 Passport, but we did not visit as it was only 30 minutes until it closed, so another museum we plan to visit in 2028.
On the way to our next stop, I took pictures of the Warr Acres Route 66 Centennial Monument in the median.
I also took pictures of the Bethany Route 66 Centennial Monument, which we later realized says Warr Acres on the other side (the other Warr Acres one is the same on both sides).
Our next stop was for the NW OKC Chamber & Route 66 Visitor Center in Bethany, which was actually at a nearby store. Nearby we also stopped at Not Cho Cheesecake to pick up some cheesecake to have for dessert later.
On the way back to the hotel, we drove around to find the rest of the Route 66 Centennial Monuments in Oklahoma City - Britton District and 39th Street District.
