Welcome to Part 5 of our New Mexico Road Trip.  We have had alot of fun sorting through the various sites and things to do while in Albuquerque.  Of course, the main focus, as you know, is the Balloon Fiesta!  We are so pumped for this trip!

So, here is the breakdown that we have come up with for the first three days of our trip. Mind you, we did all this planning on a text session yesterday - please don't think we are nuts for not just picking up the telephone to talk it through! We would love any input, if you have traveled to or are from Albuquerque!

Day 1: Albuquerque 
- Balloon Fiesta morning Session
- Afternoon for relaxing and hanging out
- Evening - Albuquerque Old Town for dinner and shopping

Day 2: Albuquerque
- Sandia Peak & Tram
- Botanical Gardens
- Balloon Fiesta Evening Session

Day 3: Drive from Albuquerque to Taos
Stop along the way to see 
a) Giant Red Arrow
b) Petroglyph National Monument
c) Bandelier Monument
d) Kasha Katuwe Tent Rock National Monument
- Arrive Taos, Eat and Settle in

We are working on finding some great dining places in and around Albuquerque that have menus for both vegan, vegetarian and picky!  Stay tuned for Part 6 and Taos Activities!!

    Elisa lives in Garden City, New York with her husband, three daughters, and dog, Liberty. She is an entrepreneur whose professional career has included a variety of businesses in the toy, licensing and direct marketing businesses. Since her teen years, she has traveled extensively throughout the US, Europe and Asia.  Today she is a stay at home mom and screenwriter, whose  passions are traveling, writing and cooking (as well as eating, like her cousin Tanya!) and lest we forget, shopping!

    Tanya

    Tanya is a free sprit who resides in Southern California with the only family that she has outside of NY (you can take a girl out of the city, but you’ll never take the city out of this girl). Her housemates include her mom, her 2 sisters, her brother, her sister’s boyfriend, her niece, her 2 kids and her ex! Yup...all under one roof! Her professional career and background was in film (writing, production and acting). Currently she is a stay at home mom - who is hardly ever at home, and who’s passions are: everything travel related, food (both cooking and eating), photography, skiing and of course, shopping!
