Santa Fe (Cinco de Mayo)

Loretto Chapel/134 yrs old
San Miguel Chapel built in 1610
Oldest House in the country built in 1610
We decided to have breakfast downtown on this warm and sunny morning.  OK breakfast but a really nice walk around the downtown area.  The shops were just opening, the streets were not crowded and the temperature was perfect.  As I think I mentioned, in an earlier blog, Santa Fe was founded in the early 1600's and they have done a great job of preserving many of the structures.  The sale of art is third in the country only to NYC and LA.  Civic pride is very evident.  We have had a good visit here spending  time in the city and  time in the outlying attractions.  Tomorrow we do the scenic loop drive to Taos and then on to Durango, CO.
