Once again it was very, very hot in the sun. After lunch we explored Old Albuquerque. It was very nice, but not as extensive as Santa Fe which was a favorite from last year's trip. But we did manage to find a nice watering hole and both experienced our first Frozen Margaritas, which were delicious. Ken says that he could have stayed there all evening. But I drove him home to our Casita.
Must add that the Pueblo style adobe homes are really nice and look so wonderful in this environment. Ken is especially fond of the pebble lawns. Some are even green pebbles (yucky looking) but when you see grass it is so out of place. Another observation is that the highway overpasses are nicely painted and often with a southwestern motif. Even the landscaping is very southwestern. All very attractive. Could get use to these places (but never in the summer heat!)
Tomorrow we will take a scenic drive between Albuquerque and Santa Fe and probably spend the night in Santa Fe before going to Taos on Sunday.
Hope you are all well. We are missing everyone but not quite ready to come home yet. We have even started talking about our next adventure.
