Sky City. Amazing little Indian settlement (peublo) on top of this mesa. It's bigger than it looks here. Been there for thousands of years apparently.

We stumbled across a Indian ceremony taking place which was fantastic - but we weren't allowed to take any photos which was a pity.







Funny parking meter system in Albuquerque. You either put coins in the slot or stuff notes into it with a little 'stuffer' that hangs on the side. They come around and open the back up a couple of times a day and if your little box hasn't got $2 in it your done.

I cant think of any songs about Albuquerque.













Later that day we caught the 'tram' (pictured at the top) up the local mountain. I was still dressed in my shorts and shirt. How was I to know the local mountain was 11500 ft above sea level (Kosciuszko is 7500 ft).

Nearly froze a few things off.

I now own a very warm New Mexico windcheater. The gift shop was doing a roaring trade in them.
