Vibrant, sprawling desert-Albuquerque
posted by usatravel1 - private message on December 23, 2008 around 3 amI went Albuquerque for some business purpose. My office sends me to this place for some office purpose. I was so much excited that I was going to some place which is outside my home city. I packed all my goods and went for the travel. Earlier I prepared for the hotel. I searched for this hotel from the net as cheap hotels in albuquerque . I traveled by plane to the city. After reaching to the city I checked in to the hotel room. Then I completely relaxed for 2-3 hours. Then I had a hot water bath. Then I refresh myself and prepared myself for travel.
As it was my first day I traveled to Rio Grande Botanic Garden. This garden is the Garden of Eden for those who appreciate the natural beauty of flowers and plant life. The Desert Pavilion features an ultra modern glass conservatory which produces heat filtered, ultra violet rays to allow Xeric species to bloom year round. The Mediterranean Pavilion is home to fragrant plant life and lush walled gardens. The PNM Butterfly Pavilion and butterfly-hummingbird garden are majestic. I left feeling like I have come upon my own secret garden. Exhibits explore the phenomenal process of photosynthesis, providing a fascinating kaleidoscope of color. Next I went to Albuquerque Biological Park. Along the Rio Grande the city of Albuquerque has set aside hundreds of acres for our enjoyment. Tingley Aquatic Park is a great place for picnics and family gatherings. At the Rio Grande Zoological Park I saw exotic animals from around the globe and check out the Albuquerque Aquarium. Then I took a leisurely stroll through the thousands of plants in the Rio Grande Botanic Garden. Then I went to Tingley Aquatic Park. A narrow-gauge railroad links beautiful areas together. Once known as Tingley Beach, this revamped, regional park encompasses wonderful walkways, piers and a quaint shoreline landscape. I pulled out the fishing gear and had a go at the stocked fishing hole free of charge or took some bread crumbs and feed the friendly ducks.
It was my second day and I went to Isleta Lakes. Located on the Pueblo of Isleta, these lakes have been developed for fishing, camping and picnicking. Created along the huge cottonwood trees of the Rio Grande Bosque, this is a great spot for me to while away the day while relaxing in the relatively cool shade.
It was my third day and I went to Sandia Peak Tramway. This tramway lifts from the Sandia foothills through five natural life zones to the top of the Sandia Mountains, more than 10,000 feet above sea level. Time and terrain seem to move in harmony as passengers scout the rugged canyons and lush forests for bighorn sheep and deer. The tram docks alongside the High Finance Restaurant. This is a must see visit.
On the forth day I have to complete my office work. So my whole day spent in doing the office work. After completing my work I come back to my home city with the sweet memories.
