...Albuquerque Old Town

as colorful as the morning's balloons

Stroll the streets of this colorful and delightful old historic district and you just may find yourself singing "Don't worry, be happy." It just kinda does that to you.

There are plenty of shops to browse, many hidden in corners, nooks and crannies filled with abundant color, restaurants to fill the tummy and, it seems always in Albuquerque, brilliant blue sky.

The town's Catholic church, the Iglesia de San Felipe de Neri, was established in1706. Below is its front plaza.

My new favorite restaurant in Albuquerque is in Old Town. Its ambiance rivals the streets of Old Town itself...not to mention the savory authentic Mexican dishes. And, instead of complimentary chips with the order, they serve warm sopapillas for a delicious finishing touch. Madre mia!
