Taos

This weekend while my parents were here we took a road trip to Taos, NM. We had planned on going there later this winter to do some skiing but since we are heading back to Florida sooner than we thought we figured we better check it out now. We weren't sure what there was to do there besides skiing and after we left we decided, not much! We went and visited the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge. There was a beautiful view of the river and gorge. The scary part was that the bridge was on a highway and there were no guardrails or anything protecting you from vehicles moving very fast! The second place we visited was the Taos Pueblo, which is a Native American reservation. We were surprised at the way these people lived. The place was very run down, almost like a third world country. What surprised us even more was the fact that they charge an arm and a leg to enter the Pueblo. They even charge $5 to bring your camera in. I took many more pictures that I will include on the link below. (I wanted my $5 worth!!)
