Albuquerque - New Mexico
|
|
Now a thriving city, Albuquerque was once sought after by Francisco Vázquez de Coronado, a Spanish conquistador, who was in search of the Las Siete Ciudades Doradas De CÃbola - Golden Cities of CÃbola, cities of splendor and riches. What he found here were vast, beautiful landscapes and a rich Pueblo heritage.
To the west is the SandÃa Mountain range, which can be seen from almost everywhere in the region. Named SandÃa (meaning 'watermelon') by Spanish explorers, the mountainsides take on that pink color at sunset.

Holbrook - Museum of the Americas
|
|
This museum contains one of the largest private collections of ancestral Pueblo artifacts and Meso-American artifacts in the southwest. Pottery and tools used by the native Americans hundreds of years ago are displayed in glass cases. And a two-room reconstructed 1000 year old Anasaxi Native American ruin stands in the middle of the museum. It was brought from a nearby site and rebuilt stone-by-stone.
Outside the museum there is a place for kids to have fun and dig for " dinosaur bones". Next to it is a rock yard for visitors where they can purchase rocks and petrified wood.
After we spent more than an hour there we then continued driving to Albuquerque, New Mexico.
