Last Day - Albuquerque

At the end of our trip, we spent a day in Albuquerque. We went to Sandia Peak, which was absolutely incredible. We took the tram to the top of the Sandia Mountains and at more than 10,000 feet above sea level, the view is unparalleled. The tram takes about 15 minutes to reach the top - and the ride is either breathtaking or sheer terror, depending on whether one is afraid of heights. More pictures from the rides up and down and the view from the top are here.
At least Emily enjoyed the tram ride up to the top of the Sandia Mountains....

After spending a few hours at Sandia Peak, we headed off to Explora!, the Albuquerque children's museum, where the girls had an absolute blast!! For the girls, this might have been the best part of our trip (other than hanging with Felix) as they were finally able to let loose, explore, play and use their imaginations to the fullest. They simply loved it! More pictures here.

Is Emily into it or what?!


Even Felix enjoyed himself a bit at Explora! (here he is, giving his mom the LeBlanc crooked smile.)
