"There is soo much I don't know about quantum mechanics"

So I was out in Santa Fe yesterday. It was a nice trip. Went with services, however it was more time in a 15 passenger van. Also we managed to get lost a few times. We ended up driving out around in the desert for a while, then past the Santa Fe opera. Then we finally made it to the flea market. It was on Tesque Reservation and no cameras where allowed. Then we went into downtown Santa Fe, where cameras where allowed. So I have some pictures.


This is Santa Fe, atleast out in the old town area. There are a bunch of shops and such around the plaza area. Lots of arts/jewelery. I wandered around and picked up a few things. I'm sure that people will want to go up when they come out to visit. So I think I'll be going back.



This is actually the New Mexico museum of Art. But it looks very cool with the pueblo design and such. There are a bunch of buildings in Santa Fe which look like this, but I thought I'd put up this one picture so you could enjoy it.


This is Loretto Chapel. It is apparently somewhat famous, though I haven't researched alot of it yet. There was a wedding going on. Shortly after I took this picture the doors opened and the couple left the church, the theme from Star Wars was playing on the organ.



There was a mariachi band outside after the wedding. I thought I would take a picture and all. Lots of these around, there were some at the Fiesta in Alamogordo. Must have something to do with being close to Mexico.


There was something going on in the plaza. There were mines and mariachi bands and this monster thing. It was going up to people and messing with them. Overall it was quite a fun thing to watch.

Well, just as a side note the Santa Fe trail runs from St. Louis to Santa Fe. I think the route that I took to come out closely followed it, though I never went to Santa Fe, till now. I got a few things and such.
Also I sampled some more of the New Mexican cuisine. I had a fry bread taco with green chili sauce. I do like the green chili sauce, but I am not a fan of guacamole. I tried it again, still don't like it. I did have a margarita which worked well, it was good. Now I just need to figure out what a sopialla is.
