After our "awesome" camping spot in Nageezi, we headed to Albuquerque. Coming into the city, it looked like Phoenix... lots of newer tract houses way out in the desert.
Old Town Albuquerque was really fun. We had a picnic lunch on the grass in the town square, walked around and looked at the shops, visited the RATTLESNAKE MUSEUM and saw a video of a cobra eating an antelope (won't eat again for one year!) and enjoyed a snow cone. Albuquerque is more than 300 years old!
This old cannon was a hit with the boys! They each posed individually for several shots on it... but here is a group photo. 
We drove to the Albuquerque Temple for a quick visit. It is really beautiful! The grounds were very nice, of course, and the flowers were gorgeous! It is neat to see all the different temples. What a blessing to have them closer to so many people!
