Voodoo, Hoodoo, Bears and Ju Ju.

It has been an amazing few days on our road trip and I thought I would share a few photographs from the last couple of days. Hope you enjoy!

The New Orleans Historic Voodoo Museum

Less of a Museum more of a house filled with the most intriguing, curious and fascinating collections I have experienced. It felt like I had entered the Mighty Boosh....

Joining up with the Historical Route 66 a couple of days later we met some amazing people who were full of southern hospitality. Where else could you walk into a shop looking for a patch and come out hours later with free candy, free shop merchandise and recommendations for where to have tea that night? - Jay, if your reading we went to Joe Tacos and the chillie rellenios were ace!

Our next destination was New Mexico- dubbed 'the land of enchantment'. It didn't take us long to see why! Here are just a few of the pictures we took.

Sunset over Santa Fe.

This photograph happened like this:

Aimee: 'Thats odd, there are leaves all over the floor'

Matt: 'I dont think they are leaves, they are climbing up the wall'.

Aimee: Runs

Matt: Proceeds to take pictures of said insect.

So, we park up at Sandia Mountain National Forest and I step out of the car to pay for the parking. The people in the car next to us wind down their window and say, in hushed tones 'Excuse me, there is a bear'. I turn around. So there is. Then I notice this sign;

Then I promptly get back in the car and lock the door.

Other than the amazingly cute bears, the park has some pretty impressive sights. Here is Matt enjoying some of them.

And so here we are, Gallup New Mexico. We just enjoyed dinner at the Ranch Kitchen and thought Lisa might enjoy this horse. I wonder if you can see what it is standing on??
