On the Road: An alien experience

Walk the streets in your favorite alien outfit, take campy photos with the variety of wood carved, inflatable or gargantuan plastic alien statues lining the streets, read testimonials at the UFO museum, fully immerse yourself in the virtual reality of the 1947 alien landing and government coverup, and top the trip off with a drive to the other-worldly White Sands National Park (plastic green saucer in hand, of course).
