We started our day at the visitor center. They advised us to go and tour the capitol building and the art work that is displayed there.
We walked trough and enjoyed the art work in the capitol building.
This is the Rotunda.
This is a Kateri Tekakwitha 1656-1680 She is the first Indian of North America to be promoted to a Saint.
This is the Cathedral Basilica of St Francis of Assisi and Saint Kateri stands in the left corner of the grounds. This church was built by Archbishop Jean Baptiste Lamy between 1869 and 1886 on the site of the old adobe church.
This is the small chapel on the North side that was kept from the old church.
Reredos with St. Francis surrounded by saints of the New World.
Central Park in Old Town Santa Fe.
Time to eat and this restaurant was recommended by someone who stopped to ask us if we needed some help. We were pouring over the map we got from the visitor center. I am glad we took his suggestion we had a wonderful lunch.
Our route home was on the west side of the mountain. We stopped at the Sandia Peak Tramway. What fun we had.
The top of the tram was up there in the cloud.
View from the tram.
Wonderful rock formations.
A tramway worker rides on top on his way home. What a way to travel.
