Santa Fe - Post 3

Tuesday night Janis' Aunt and Uncle made us a home cooked Mexican meal - enchiladas. I have had them before at Carlos and Murphys in Winnipeg, but you know...they were nothing like each other. The meal was soooo tasty.

Wednesday (yesterday) we drove three hours out to Roswell and checked out the alien/UFO museum. It was pretty cool. Mostly unbiased, it tried to present the facts as they are known, and then let the visitor decide for themselves if it was a weather balloon, a UFO, or something the military was involved in. Other than the museum, the towns only other main attractions are the myriad of tacky tourists shops. So, after about an hour and a half in Roswell, we made the three hour drive back to Santa Fe. Another highlight though, was temperature. Roswell, out of the mountains unlike Santa Fe, was a balmy 17.

In the evening, we went out to a yummy Mexican restaurant. So yummy, in fact, that we passed country star Randy Travis in the lobby. Apparently, he's a regular there. There is even a dish named after him on the menu. I had Sopapillos, which again, were nothing like I had in Winnipeg. But tastey!
