Day 3 - Around Santa Fe, NM

Up around 6:30 and down for breakfast about 7:30. When in Santa Fe we always stay at the Inn of the Governors, mostly because we can park and walk to the Plaza, shopping and restaurants. Of course it doesn’t hurt that they host sherry and tea in the afternoon, along with a very good free breakfast and a $15 credit everyday at the bar.

Our friends were just getting up so after breakfast we walked up near the Plaza for one of Starbucks’s finest. Shortly thereafter Al and Ann joined us for shopping, which included earrings for Ann and hummingbird soap dish for Barb. Ann and Barb struck out on their own while Al and I hung out at the hotel. After the girls returned we had a very good lunch at L’Oliver. Barb and I split the fish and chips, which were probably the best we have ever had.

On the was back to the hotel we couldn’t pass up the Gruet Winery tasting room. And taste we did. Five sparkling wines later we made our purchases. Back at the hotel it was time to rest up for sherry and tea and then dinner at La Fonda. If you need a good dinner in Santa Fe La Fonda should be high on your list.

Took a little walk after dinner and made notes on places to visit tomorrow. I think Barb has picked out a pair of earrings, but we shall see tomorrow when the shop opens. Tomorrow will be our last day in Santa Fe and then its off to South Fork, Colorado.
