We visited Santa Fe (our first time) last November.
Meow Wolf and a trip to Taos Pueblo were the highlights for us.
The food around Santa Fe is awesome. A couple of restaurants we enjoyed were Blue Corn Cafe and Cafe Castro (which we visited after Meow Wolf). A good friend of mine sent me NM Hatch chile powders for my birthday. That stuff is really good.
Hope you let us know how you liked/loved Santa Fe.
You'll be leaving as I get there (Sydney 2/26, Hobart 3/4, Melbourne 3/9)
Thanks, we will be making that trip in September with my mom. Two years ago we flew to LAX and visited some of the Missions from there to San Jose and flew home. Mom had a late brother who lived in Goleta; we used to visit the Missions from Capistrano to Inez. Last year, we flew to Sacramento and visited the Missions down to San Jose. We started down to Big Sur but made so many stops, we had to turn around to be able to make our trip back home.
I renewed our March reservations to Solvang earlier today. But thank you again for letting me know.
Thanks! A big motivation to visit Cádiz is the historical aspect of the city - just to be there. Oldest city in Western Europe founded by the Phoenicians 1100BC. Major port for the Spanish Navy - the Armada that attacked England sailed from there. Sir Francis Drake sacked Cádiz in late 1500s and also made off with barrels of sherry, introducing England to one of its all time favorite drinks. The great naval battle of Trafalgar was fought nearby - a naval defeat for Napoleon and saving England from invasion.
We are going to attempt a long day trip to Rhonda from Sevilla. It's a long bus trip - ~ 2 - 2.5 hrs each way, but should be very scenic riding over the mountains. 7am departure gets there at 9:45am and then there are departures at 15:30, 17:00 or 18:00 back to Sevilla, so some flexibility in terms of how long to stay.
+!.
