Santa Fe, New Mexico is where the majority of my family lives. I always return once a year to visit, usually in the summer. Although the city does not change much it never gets old. A typical visit always includes lots of eating, visiting, and enjoying all Santa Fe has to offer. Since my family loves to eat we have massive family dinners. The menu includes chili, beans, lamb, and flan. Then we sit outside watch the sunset, while being surrounded by the Sangre de Christo Mountains. Every Saturday morning the family gets up early to go to the farmers market. At least once I go to the plaza, and visit the Governor's Palace. Also, I enjoy going on hikes in the mountains. It is so pretty and peaceful.

Oh, Santa Fe: how great to have an excuse to return there often, Mona! Fantastic! My mother was born in New Mexico, although we don't have any family who live there now... I wish we did so I would have an excuse to go there too.
ReplyDeleteAnd of course mountains are an incredibly important part of the landscape of India, both in terms of real geography and sacred geography too: you will find Shiva and his family living in the Himalayas on Mount Kailash: Wikipedia
