Albuquerque
We had a quiet day in the Old Town portion of Albuquerque today. Our primary visit was the Museum of Natural History. The museum is based on a tour through time beginning with the big bang into modern times. The majority of the museum is focused on dinosaurs, largely because New Mexico is a premier site for paleontologists. They feature many of the dinosaurs only found in New Mexico. Other highlights include a section on volcanoes and another on the various caves found in the state. The Old Town portion had actually improved significantly since our visit many years ago. More tourist businesses surrounded the main square.
