The Great American Road Trip: Santa Fe

HuffPost Social Reading



We've hit the road again and ended up in old Santa Fe! Somewhere between mountain town and desert oasis, this city's the perfect place for a little rest and relaxation. We started out with a stroll around The Plaza, the downtown spot where you can buy everything from Native American turquoise gems to vintage cowboy boots and beautiful silver pieces from the famous Nambe store. Later, we hit up The Shed for some red and green chile-topped enchiladas (that's called "Christmas") and a couple of margaritas. After a long gallery hop up Canyon Road we were ready to hit the road again, revived and already missing the sunshine, the cool dry air and the unique charm that we found in the city of Santa Fe.
