Walking Among Ghosts in Santa Fe Style

Advantages: Beautiful small city in a dramatic desert and mountain landscape
Disadvantages: Expensive and somewhat pretentious, having lost the laid-back attitude of the past

. It has been my personal pleasure to come away from shopping excursions at the Santa Fe Flea Market bearing such prizes as traditional Native American jewelry, African baskets, Mexican blankets, handmade toys from Ecuador, handcrafted silver earrings from Canyon Road, pine nuts harvested by local farmers, and a rather shabby lamp being sold out of someone’s car boot. I admit to being a bit impulsive with that last purchase, but the rest were bargains every bit as good as I hoped they’d be. Still, for perspective visitors to this mecca of consumerism, the traditional warning of “caveat emptor” is well remembered. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lodging and Restaurants ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lodging in Santa Fe varies from modestly priced basic motel rooms, to comfortable suite hotels, to luxurious accommodations in ...

Review of Santa Fe

Santa Fe - The New Mexican Experience

Advantages: Positive, welcoming atmosphere. Delicious Food
Disadvantages: Overcrowding on Saturday nights

Recently my friend and I decided to treat ourselves by dining at Santa Fe, a New Mexican variation restaurant based in Reading, Berkshire.

My Santa Fe

Advantages: Comfortable ,Great Vision
Disadvantages: petrol consumption

Hyundai Santa Fe----2.4 CDX (petrol) Now you wonder why would I go for a 4x4 well try spending a winter in Livingston then you will see. Last January we had some major snow fall and because I work in Edinburgh I tend to drive in. Well I had a Hyundai Coupe and let me tell you that car did not like the snow . Looked out my window in the morning and the snow was about 6/7 inch deep. Tried to get it out of the street with no luck so had to take the day off work. That's when I decided I would get the 4x4. I went to my local Hyundai dealer as they have provided me with excellent service in the past and explained to them my dilemma. They suggested the 4x4 Santa Fe. So took it out for a spin and loved it straight away it got off it's mark quick enough this is important for me as I stay in a place with lots of roundabouts so pick off ...
