Days 145 & 146 (Thu 12/13/12 & Fri 12/14/12)- Albuquerque, NM

Enduring cold and then rainy weather left us feeling less adventurous than usual and led to many hours indoors, absorbing the warmth and entertainment of various libraries.

Dividing our time between several we had a clear favorite in the small, bordering town of Corrales. This tiny library was a re purposed house, separated into different rooms for computers, teens, children, non-fiction and fiction and had quite possibly the nicest librarians ever. My favorite feature was the koi pond upon entering, flanked by lush plants and stained glassed windows.

We did occasionally get fresh (as well as cold and wet) air, like a failed attempt to visit some museums. On the UNM campus we couldn't find university parking. We parked in an adjoining neighborhood and were walking over when it started raining. It didn't seem worth a soaking, so we turned back before being doused.
