Jack In The Box In Nevada

On the very third day morning in Las Vegas, we set out for a day trip to Hoover Dam in Nevada and Lake Havasu in Arizona.  It was another long drive for us and I want to compliment my BIL for taking over the wheel throughout the long drive... he is really fantastic!

Before we set out, we dropped by at this fast food outlet... Jack In The Box...
Jack In The Box
(but I don't see any box nor Jack... )
I had this for my breakfast.. 
waffle pancake with beef and cheese!!
how many calories??   shhhhh.....
BIL brought us these from the convenience store next door...
 
Gosh... so so sweet!!!  I couldn't even finish one of them!
After our breakfast and filling up fuel....
it was back on the road again....a long straight stretch of road...
BIL drove endlessly.. he is really good actually...
no complaints of tiredness..
while the rest of us either dozed off 
or eating junk food in the car..
Along the way, he would tell us the "history" and "geography" of each place we pass...
But I think he would be very disappointed in me if he reads this..
Cos I couldn't remember much of what he had said...  LOL...

  2. It's called Jack in the Box, because originally, there was a toy box with a male puppet (Jack) popping out of the top of the box. This box was displayed on top of the roof next to the sign of the restaurant. Later, the owners decided to take all those boxes down, but keep the name.

    I loooove Krispy Kreme donuts. I wish we had a franchise here on Oahu. There is one on Maui, though.
