Vacation: Day 3 (August 5)

A short drive today, from Colorado Springs to Taos. We get into Taos in plenty of time to find a hotel and then ... shop. Taos Pueblo is closed today (presumably for a ceremony of some sort), so we're restricted to Taos itself.

We have lunch/dinner at Michael's Kitchen, where we are required by law to eat whenever we enter the city limits of Taos. Really. You can look it up on Westlaw.



We spend the rest of the evening shopping the town square for Emma souvenirs. Emma has a budget, and means to blow it all at the start of the trip, preferably on a fetish in the shape of a cat -- if she can find one. We talk her down a bit, advising her to at least wait until we get to the Pueblo, where we figure there will be a better variety of authentic fetishes available.

Here's Emma during the shopping frenzy.



Approximate distance covered: a piddly 220 miles.
