Emma's family arrived in Santa Fe Christmas Day. During a nice dinner at our house, surrounded by expected, and unexpected, friends, we learned that one the Jesuit priests took it upon himself to get her family a chauffeur to take them wherever they wanted to go for the week. We saw him go outside, and the next moment he was sticking his head in the door wanting to know what time we wanted to be picked up in the morning! Wow! So, we spent the first day in the city taking her family around to some of the sights there: the National Cathedral, the outside of the Palacio National, shopping in the square, and dinner in a restaurant overlooking the Zocolo at night. It was lovely. Some of the sights were set up just for the holidays, such as the temporary (though very large) ice skating rink, snowman building, and snow fighting tents. It was quite fun to watch!
