Red Rock Balloon Rally

Each December 200 hot air balloons float among the gorgeous red rock canyons and mesas outside of Gallup, New Mexico. It is a dream setting for photographers, an unmatched thrill for balloon pilots and passengers, and a spectacle for spectators. It is also the second largest annual balloon event in the world.

Spring has sprung! Albuquerque’s BioPark includes the lush Botanic Garden, and the trees, plants, flowers and visitors are all popping out as the weather warms us. Vivaldi wrote a piece for all Four Seasons, but the soundtrack in this garden is, of course, Spring.

Angel Fire Zipline

It will have wind blowing in your face and blood pumping in your veins. Ride six separate zipline cables at the mountain’s 10,600 foot peak. The rides will have you soaring well above the treetops of the ski runs below. Amazing views, if you are willing to open your eyes.

This museum offers something for everyone with its planetarium, unique traveling and temporary exhibits and the DynaTheater for amazing film viewing. But, of course, it’s the dinosaurs that make it the most popular museum in New Mexico.

Norman & Vi Petty Rock & Roll Museum

The small town of Clovis, New Mexico is home to big things in the history of rock and roll music. Norman Petty had Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison and many others recording in his studio, and created a sound that was both distinctive and trend setting.
