Back to the honeymoon posts! 😀 Albuquerque, New Mexico did not disappoint. From the delicious food to the kindest people, I highly recommend paying this city a visit. My only regret is that we should’ve spent more time here instead of Santa Fe, but c’est la vie!
Highs
- Our AirBnB was super cute!
- We drove by the Breaking Bad house, and didn’t get screamed at by the paranoid lady who lives there haha!
- We had the most delicious dinner and mezcal drinks, and the restaurant was super dog friendly. Our server loved us and Linley even got a free chicken dinner from the owner!
- We walked to Bar Uno, a super dog friendly bar downtown, and our bartender was incredible. He was super nice and loved Linley, too… as did the other patrons.
- Simply walking around and exploring our area with Alex and Linley was so much fun; it’s always the little things!
Low
- I had the *worst* bloody nose at night. It woke me up and I had the worst night sleep of the entire trip that night by far.
Buffalos
- At Bar Uno, a lady came in who was clearly on pills. Our lovely bartender actually cut her off and called it out. It was sad to see someone going through that, but really responsible on our bartender’s end and Alex and I sincerely appreciated his nonjudgmental approach. Well done, sir!
- I missed the morning walk before heading east because of my stupid bloody nose and shitty night’s sleep, but Alex and Lin saw some hot air balloons together! Although slightly jealous since they’re a New Mexico staple, I was happy they got to experience them together!

Traveling with the Traceys 
Sounds like such a special stop on your honeymoon — minus the rogue bloody nose, of course! 😅 Loved reading about all the little moments that made Albuquerque shine for you, especially how dog-friendly everything was (Linley clearly stole some hearts!). And cheers to that bartender at Bar Uno — what a great example of kindness and responsibility. Here’s to more unexpected gems on your journey!
