Four Days and 1,407 Miles Later, We Turn In The Rental Car

Jaunted editor Paul Brady is back on terra firma in the U.S. after nearly a year away in South America. So how did he get back here? By taking the ultimate road-trip. All this week, he'll be telling us just how he did it. Any questions or suggestions? Let us know.

If 24 hours before, we'd been dreading a six-hour drive, the final leg of our one-way road trip started with a bit of melancholy of a different sort. Not because we'd been having a bad time but because it meant my trip--through South America, through the Gulf Coast and onward to Oklahoma--was about to end. It'd been so long since I'd stayed in one place, I didn't know what might happen when we arrived in Oklahoma.

But I put facing doubt about my future on hold while Pat Faser at the Fairfield Place served up a big plate of veggie frittata, sausage links, fresh fruit and a truly Southern biscuit alongside orange juice and coffee. I'd say the emphasis at this B&B was on breakfast if the bed hadn't been so comfortable.

Most Missed in Tulsa

Maybe Tulsa got a bad rap when Chandler on "Friends" got exiled there on "Friends." Sure, there's no Central Perk there, but the birthplace of Route 66 has its charms, especially for the nearly 400,000 people who call it home. See what Mr. Bing missed with our handy guide:

Club Majestic -- Don't take your drunk straight friends to this gay and lesbian dance party featuring drag king shows and concerts every weekend. After all, you could miss out on a sculpted hottie. 124 N. Boston Ave

Osage Million Dollar Elm Casino -- If you think a Loverboy concert is classic entertainment, have we got a 24-hour hotspot for you. 951 W. 36th St.

Sobo Loco -- What's better than mixing business with pleasure? Mexican classics served tapas-style at this restaurant and bar. 3523 S. Peoria Ave
