We next headed off to New Mexico, specifically to White Sands. If you haven’t heard of it (I hadn’t), it’s beautiful! This is hard to describe without taking away the beauty, but it was just miles of sand dunes, smooth and tall. We took a self-led tour through some of the dunes, where certain animals live. The rest of the dunes, we climbed all over and took pictures. We were fortunate enough to be there right around sunset, and the sun was so beautiful going down behind the dunes. There were all sorts of people there, some having dinner on top of the dunes, or sledding down the sides. I thought to myself, if I lived around here, I think I would get a group of friends together all the time and come play at the dunes. It only costs $5.00 to get in to see them, and it looks like so much fun to slide down them. If you think about it, $5.00 is much less expensive than a movie. But anyways, it was a fairly quick stop and then we drove the rest of the evening to Carlsbad, New Mexico.
