Day two of our New Mexico girls’ trip began with breakfast in the hotel. Meh.
After breakfast we walked across the street to the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center where we toured the museum and watched Comanche Indian Dancers.
I learned that baseball has been a big part of the 19 Pueblo communities as far back as 1885! Team members aged 15 – 55 would play together, and this is where a lot of mentoring would happen within the community.
Today there is a Northern Pueblo League and Southern Pueblo League.
Next we headed to Old Town for some shopping, and had lunch at El Sol de Mexico – Araceli.
There is a beautiful church in Old Town, known as the oldest church in Albuquerque, serving the community since 1706.
Exhausted from shopping, we headed back to the hotel to rest up a bit, then back to 12th Street Tavern for dinner (no margaritas this time) and time to firm up plans for day three.
