    Outside my hotel window

    This was the view outside from my hotel window.

    The mountains are majestic covered with snow the first few days. They are not clear in this picture, but I will add more.

    I love mountains!!

    Great architecture and this green building was custom painted.

    This is my favorite part of New Mexico. I enjoy excellent wild trout fishing in the middle of a desert. Fragile and harsh.

  • Address: Rio Guadalupe

    Views & Vistas: Basic Do's & Dont's of Exploring Albuquerque

  • As far as Albuquerque goes, its spreaded out a lot. I liked it but the only downfall was that I didn't plan to be driving so much, I figured that it'd be a few to see things in the middle of town but I coudn't be more wrong.
    Do- Go Downtown and see the old fashioned neon signs from the good old Route 66 days or visit the "haunted" KiMo Theatre.
    Don't- Go alone downtown, its to be enjoyed with other people to bar hop, to cruise, to wander about, plus its like anyother metro-downtown- enough said.
    Do- Go up the Tram in the Sandias or even hike the Sandias
    Don't- Go unprepared, bring money, a camera, bring food if not willing to dish out more than $20 a plate at the restaruant up on the peak, and of course water if hiking, children friendly.
    Do- Go to Nob Hill and continue enjoying Route 66
    Do- Go to Old Town, maybe spend half a day, even though that wasn't long enough for me to see everything, children friendly.
    Don't- Frown and think that all these places are horrible tourist traps. They are what attract tourist but I've actually met Albuquerque locals at these places doing a day trip.
    Do- Buy some Genuine Turquoise, some believe by wearing it it brings good luck and by wearing Coral it'll ward away bad spirits
    Don't- Buy imitation semi-precious stones or be suckered to do so
    Do- Soak in the New Mexican attitude, relax and don't be too worrisome.
    Do- Try their chile, its different from Texan and Arizonan chili. And also their food, its yummy.
    Do- Visit the petroglyphs, one of the Pueblos, or their cultural centers or museums, children friendly.

  • Address: Albuquerque
  • Directions: South of Santa Fe, East of Gallup, almost in the heart of New Mexico
