Our day in Santa Fe was the only day all month that never had temperatures above freezing. I didn't mind though since right after breakfast, I heard my favourite two words....Dog Park!
This was such a great place, acres and acres of trails with lots of small trees and bushes. I played with over 10 dogs!!! It wasn't fenced in, but that's not a problem for me since I am good at coming when I am called.
We spent the rest of the day downtown. Most of the buildings reminded me of the Pueblo dwellings....except for the churches.
This BIG church was built in the 1880's.
Momma called this a Baptismal font. The water was bubbling up in the basin and then flowed into the pool. The symbols in the pool represent the four evangelists. I'm not sure what that means...but I bet you do! I would have loved to have a drink from such a fancy bowl!
You may have seen this church, Loretto Chapel, built in 1873, on Unsolved Mysteries on TV.
It has a mysterious staircase with no known signs of support.
Since it was a cold day, momma and dad ordered hot chocolate at Panera Bread. Boy, were they surprised! The marshmallows were chocolate with chocolate chips inside...they called it their dessert.
