Road Trip 2011 - Santa Fe Part II
The Santa Fe downtown exploration continues... Hehe...

#1 Cafe Pasqual's, a famous restaurant. We had dinner here on our first night in Santa Fe and it was great.

#2

#3

#4 Those are real cow (or buffalo?) skulls.

#5

#6 That's a fake cowboy :p

#7 Rrrhhh...

#8

#9

#10

#11

#12 Coffee is essential :p

#13

#14

#15

#16

#17

#18

#19

#20

#21

#22 A secret garden we discovered; a hidden place behind the busy main street.

#23 "Is that a butterfly?" :D

#24 Breezy day...

#25

#26

#27

#28

#29 =.=lll

#30 Hope you are hungry now cause we are going to E.A.T!

#31 The Shed. There are two doors; the normal one is entrance, the tiny one is exit.

#32 Unique place for lunch, highly recommend, the only downside is that it's pretty crowded...

#33 Comwhoring :p

#34 Chean learns the tricks too :p

#35 Tortilla chips with guacamole & salsa sauce. It was ok, edible, my fave Mexican restaurant in Portland, Por Que No? has better chips & guacamole!

#36 Garlic bread.

#37 Order mushroom soup. Sorry, I just don't know how to appreciate Mexican cuisine, can't have them three days in a row @.@

#38 See! So heavy & fattening! It's all red beans, chili, cheese, and rice. Say "Christmas" if you want red & green chili on the same plate like Chean, a new term we picked up in New Mexico.

#39

#40 The Loretto Chapel.

#41

#42

#43

#44

#45

#46

#47

#48

#49 The chapel is known for its unusual helix shaped spiral staircase (the "Miraculous Stair"), an exceptional work created by French carpenter Francois-Jean "Frenchy" Rochas (Wikipedia, 2011).

#50 Take a closer look. Nothing so miraculous right?

#51 How insane! Was that possible? The stairs was built by a small number of primitive tools including a square, a saw and some warm water and constructed a spiral staircase entirely of non-native wood; there were absolutely no nails used and no supporting pole up the center.
God is simply amazing. I hope you have a blessed day and thanks for reading.
God bless,
Bev
