second day

The second day of our trip we covered alot of ground. First we headed out west on route 66 to see the Acoma Sky City on a reservation about and hour from Alburquerque. On our way back we stopped at the Route 66 Hotel and Casino and had their lunch buffet. As soon as we got back to Alburquerque we went to Old Town where they have a lot of nice shops and also people spread their stuff on the sidewalk and sell it that way. After we left there we came upon a vineyard that was having a taste testing open to the public. We stopped in and looked the place over but didnt taste the wine simply because I dont like wine and it was so crowded my husband decided against it to. We were going to a restuarant called Barelas Coffee House. We had been told that they have really good mexican food and our son wanted us to bring him some chile verde but when we got down there they were closed. What a bummer. We ended up just grabbing a hamburger. We will be heading home in the morning. These little trips are fun but its always nice to go home. We usually dont do anything over the 4th of July week-end but this was fun for a change.
