Now I have to write it a 100 times and I should never forget it. I can spell Mississippi in my sleep. Ha Ha Ha.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know how I managed that, but I picked a hotel which is within walking distance of all kinds of shops and restaurants. So it was really easy to find a place to have a quick dinner. Don&#8217;t really want to search for a place to eat after a long drive. Went to Bravo! Cucina Italiana. Never heard of it before, but the woman at the New Mexico Welcome Center recommended it and so why not. I wasn&#8217;t really hungry and I knew I&#8217;d be a disappointed if I got a pizza. Therefore I decided on Spaghetti Bolognese. It was quite tasty. Spumoni for dessert. I forgot it was Friday night so naturally there was a wait.<\/p>\n<p>Did you know that they have a huge annual <a title=\"Link to official website\" href=\"http:\/\/www.balloonfiesta.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Albuquerque Hot-Air Balloon Festival<\/a> in the fall? Never been in a hot-air balloon. I think it&#8217;s romantic. Up in the air, bottle of Champagne, watching the sunset. Oh wait&#8230; I&#8217;m forgetting something. You need a second person to make the package complete. :-)<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s still Friday here so tomorrow&#8217;s destination will be Flagstaff, AZ. I&#8217;m hoping that I will have time to visit the <a title=\"Link to official website\" href=\"http:\/\/www.meteorcrater.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Meteor Crater<\/a>. Didn&#8217;t have time last year. The drive should be only 5 hours, and I will get an hour back going into Arizona. Not too happy with this state right now. Therefore I will simply enjoy the beauty of the land.<\/p>\n<p>Here we go, the pictures from today:<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I guess I had to stay in this town so that I finally master how to spell it.
