On day eight we slept in and then tasted the chocolate we bought the day before after which Andrea made an egg casserole for breakfast. Conner had a taste for hot wings so he ran to the store to buy boneless wings and some of us tried seven different hot sauces and rated them. We spent the afternoon packing up for our departure in the morning. We had dinner at Rowley Farmhouse Ales in Santa Fe before ending our day at the Inn & Spa at Loretto for a Flamenco dancing show by La Emi.

On day seven we went to Meow Wolf in the morning then we drove to Madrid New Mexico to have lunch at the Mine Shaft Tavern in Madrid, New Mexico which was the stand-in for the Red Pony Bar in the TV series Longmire. After lunch we walked down Main Street to Maggie's Main Street Diner where the movie Wild Hogs was filmed. Maggie's is the only Wild Hogs movie set still on main street. Maggie's Diner is NOT a diner, NEVER was a diner and NEVER will be a diner. It is a movie set built from scratch for Wild Hogs and before the movie it was a VACANT empty lot. It is now a souvenir and gift shop. After Madrid we went back to our house until it was time for us to head out to our evening adventure aboard the Sky Railway Burlesque Express at 7:30pm. The Burlesque Express departs and returns to the Santa Fe Depot featuring Zircus Erotique. Established in Santa Fe, NM in 2008, Zircus Erotique is New Mexico’s longest running burlesque company. Their style brings a mix of elements of dance, theater and performance art, neo and classic to their performances as a burlesque company. Zircus Erotique produces regular burlesque and variety shows in Santa Fe featuring performers from the Land of Enchantment and all across the country.

On day four Sue, Matt, Andrea and I met Becca and Conner at the house we rented in Santa Fe. After unpacking the cars we drove to the Cowgirl BBQ & Smokehouse for dinner. After dinner we drove to Canyon Road and parked the car. We enjoyed One of Santa Fe’s most beloved holiday traditions, the Canyon Road Farolito Walk on Christmas Eve. Thousands of farolitos cast a glow on the gardens, courtyards and adobe walls of the century-old buildings lining the road. Farolitos are little lights made out of paper bags, sand, and tea candles. In Spanish, the word farolito translates as “little lantern” and it is the preferred term in Santa Fe for the decorations that are referred to as luminarias elsewhere.
