Breaking Bad

Here it is folks! We just finished the series yesterday and we are going through a lot emotions, to say the least. 😭😭😡😡😩😃😥

We took this beautiful ABQ day to explore the city and all the film spots made popular by the show. WARNING- this might contain a few spoilers if you haven't made it through the whole series yet.

 

This park is only a couple blocks from our house. The only thing missing are the benches where Badger and the (fake) Heisenberg wait to complete their transaction while the APD and DEA look on.

 

Hank and Marie's home in a really swanky part of Albuquerque. Wish I could tell you if the inside decor is really all purple

 

Nobody was here waiting to start a new life.....or maybe they had just left because they realized their partner betrayed them

 

Saul's office, now the nightclub "The Vault"

 

Walter's house! Driving up was surreal. Any pizza stains on the roof?

 

The owner (in the purple sweater) was super gracious to all of her guests. She has lived there throughout the entire production.  

Selfies with the Whites

 

The car wash!

 

"Have an A-1 Day!"

 

A meth super lab under the guise of a laundromat

This photo of the Crossroads Motel was taken a few weeks ago. The crystal palace is located appropriately across the street from the hospital where I work. I had to sneak a photo while at work because there is actually a sign next to the motel requiring a fee to take pictures. 

 

We got some lunch at the Dog House Drive-In: chili dogs, onion rings and nachos. Not regretting it..........yet

 

Jesse's house 

Jane and Jesse's rental house. Jane was one of my favorite characters and I begged Austin to go find her house after we finished season 2. 

 

The "Twister's" fast food chain local to ABQ served at "Los Pollos Hermanos"

We both took turns waiting on Gus Fring. 

 

 

 We did our own self guided tour, but if you want to spend the extra cash you can take a ride in Walter's RV and see the sights. We spotted them out one day! 

If you are ever in Albuquerque and you love Breaking Bad, here is the google maps template we used for our tour. There are so many spots we didn't even visit- so neat to have this city and it's culture displayed in pop culture. Might not all be positive but certainly entertaining. We love you, Walt.
