Day 11





After a disappointing continental breakfast that consisted of stale toast, cereal, and some mini-muffins, we hit the road bound for Santa Fe. We arrived in Santa Fe eager to get out of the car and walk around as we had all heard good things about the city. We were excited to see a large outdoor craft show to meander through(actually, I was less excited than the others as shopping was not my favorite way to spend an afternoon but there was a lot of cool stuff on display). There were many local talented artists with their creative works on display. The problem was that most of the stuff was just too dang expensive. We walked around enjoying the adobe architecture, ate some good ice cream, and soaked in the Sante Fe flavor. Feeling exhausted, we found a hotel to check into and rested for a bit.

For dinner we went to a Tex-Mex restaurant that was recommended to us in a dining guide. Yum! The discovery of sopapillas was one that delighted us! These little fried pockets of dough were delicious and I hope they exist in the Mexican restaurants of the northeast! After dinner we walked the streets of Santa Fe, catching a beautiful sunset. We ended the night enjoying some drinks at a local watering hole.
