Old Town Albuquerque

 We are staying is a little casita in Old Town Albuquerque for a few days.  We are just a few steps from the plaza and the center of Old Town.

Our restaurant last night was a work of art in itself.

It is easy to walk everywhere from here.  The old church was founded in 1706.  The present building was built in 1792 and has Adobe walls that are five feet thick.  

Church of San Felipe de Neri

When we went over to the bakery this morning, the children from the Catholic school were all out parading on some sort of little trip.  It was so sweet to watch them and see the care which their teachers accorded them.

School day.

We asked to be able to see inside the church and a lady got the key and opened it up so we could visit.  It is so loved and beautifully cared for.  It was a privilege to visit and know of the long history being here.

The lovely altar area of the church.
