We left from Texas and headed toward New Mexico!
This is me blissfully happy because we finally found some decent coffee. It was no Stumptown but they grind their own beans and it wasn’t Starbucks, so it was exciting.
Catching some zzzzzzz’s…….
Craig’s a way cuter sleeper than me.
Welcome to New Mexico!
Home of the nicest visitor center ever.
Our first stop in New Mexico was at
the Route 66 Auto Museum.
Super touristy. Check.
It was a pretty hot day so we stopped by
“The Blue Hole” for a quick dip.
After that we stopped in Albuquerque to eat
and walked through this beautiful old church.
New Mexico was beautiful. I thought it was going to be one great big spoiler for the Grand Canyon with all the little mini canyons and rocky landscape like this. But I was wrong…..
More on the Grand Canyon tomorrow!

you are a cute sleeper too! your pictures from the trip are gorgeous. the southwest and the desert are so beautiful and mysterious.
Looks liek so much fun! I want to go swimming in this Blue Hole. I just realized that one of the roads I take everyday is actually part of old Route 66. I have the itch to just keep driving on it…maybe one day.
i think it’s so neat flying over new mexico, because you see snow capped mountains in one corner of the state, and canyons at another! the blue hole looks neat, but 61 degrees for the water? brrrrr!
XO!
Wow that church is gorgeous 🙂

Oh my gosh, I want to go! Looks awesome!
Fun! Your outfit is adorable. The Blue Hole looks awesome!

I’ve never been to New Mexico either and I live so close to it. Apparently I need to get out more. Is that big hole a natural hot spring? I love those!
I want to go to the famous little church is Santa Fe! Can’t wait to see Grand Canyon photos. I’ve never been.
The Blue Hole looks like a ton of fun.
I’ve never been a real road trip before, am enjoying living vicariously through your photos!
