Home » Day 6/Part II – Christmas Eve in Santa Fe, December 24, 2021
Back to the hotel from our quick and rainy visit of Pecos, we fixed ourselves a light late lunch snack. We both were able to download photos and start organizing them. I even had some time to post a couple of blogs… but still way behind. Note to self: when I am retired, I will need half a day of quiet time to catch up from a full day of sightseeing. With limited time, we try to do as much as possible outdoors and not spend it at a computer. Oh, well. I’ll catch up eventually with photos and blogs even if I’m back in New York by then!
We had booked our Christmas Eve dinner was reserved for 4:00PM at the hotel restaurant (the Agave), early enough to allow us plenty of time to walk up Canyon Road and see the farolitos and other Christmas activities… hoping that the rain would eventually let up (and it did!).
Dinner was a very classical Mexican buffet and unfortunately I didn’t really enjoy the choices. But Jim certainly did and had a couple of servings of everything.
After dinner we changed into comfortable clothing and walked a total of two miles past the Santa Fe Plaza and up Canyon Road for the Farolitos Walk. It was packed! Many people were out enjoying the activities. Unfortunately, the rain did damage many of the farolitos and the Canyon was not as lit up as it should have been. We did find the activities rather subdued, most likely due to the Covid restrictions still in effect in the American Indian tribes. Nevertheless, it was good to walk since we hadn’t moved so much all day due to the wintery weather.
