new mexico
Posted on Wednesday, June 1st, 2011 at 8:05 pmWe went to New Mexico a few weeks ago. Charlotte met her grandpa and we also met up with friends in Santa Fe. The trip was a lot of fun. We went to the zoo in Albuquerque and ate a lot of yummy food–everything had green chilis on/in it. We saw a lot of great artwork and outdoor sculptures and continued to eat a lot in Santa Fe.
The trip home was rough, though–our flight to Dallas got diverted to Oklahoma City because of bad weather, and we ended up stuck in Dallas overnight with no luggage. We finally made it back to Hartford the next day and had to rent a car to get back home. Charlotte was really good for the most part. She is full of questions these days so we heard a lot of “Why is plane not going? Where’s flight attendant going? What’s that button? Who’s that taxi driver?” (we heard that one about 15 times consecutively). She did get to see the cockpit on the plane, which was pretty exciting.
Here’s Charlotte at the Albuquerque Zoo:
This is in Old Town Albuquerque:
This is a church in Santa Fe with some cool sculptures that moved with the wind.
We went to Taos Pueblo, which is a 400-year-old Indian village:
