The internet connection at the hotel I am staying at is excellent in terms of speed but it loses connectivity every few minutes or so. After I select a photo to upload and watch the icon turn away while it is working, I have one eye on the wireless connection icon. So far, in the seven times I have tried to upload pictures, the connection has stuttered for a few seconds every time and canceled the transaction.
Colorado Springs gave way to Santa Fe, New Mexico, today. The road went away from the foothills of the Rockies into the eastern flatlands, before venturing back towards the mountains again. The day began with an overcast sky, followed by an hour of brilliant sunshine that highlighted the yellow sand. This was quickly followed by misty conditions that gave way to snow (yes!) and then onto a steady rain. By the time Santa Fe was reached, the rain had reduced to a drizzle. A combination of the rain and the fact that on Thanksgiving Thursday everything is closed meant that the hotel room was where a few hours in the evening were spent before venturing out to an Indian restaurant for dinner. The Indian restaurant seems to be the only restaurant that is open today and was a popular destination for tourists!
Oh well, tomorrow I shall try to put up photos and also go and see some tent rocks a few miles south-west of Santa Fe.
