May 22-25, 2009; Memorial Weekend (Friday-Monday) : Santa Fe, New Mexico Event

We’ll be staying at the Hilton Santa Fe Historic Plaza – This is a beautiful historic hotel, just 2 blocks from The Plaza in downtown Santa Fe. There will be free, roped-off parking for Vipers.

Friday, May 22nd – We’ll meet near the Park Meadows Mall at 11:00am. We’ll be leaving at 11:15am for the drive to Santa Fe and check into the Hilton Santa Fe Historic Plaza once there. At 7:00, the New Mexico Viper Club will meet us at the Hilton for a short walk to the restaurant. Vanessie has a beamed ceiling, heavy oak furniture, and high-backed chairs that contribute to the rustic feeling of this dinner spot. Portions are gigantic at Vanessie's, where chicken, beef, lamb, and fish dishes are accompanied by huge baked potatoes and oversized salads. After dinner, we can stroll over to the piano bar and bask in the cool, live music. We also have a Parlor reserved for later on.

Saturday, May 23rd – The New Mexico Viper Club will meet us at the Hilton at 9:00am for a cruise to Albuquerque. First stop is the Unser Museum – a 10:00am arrival. Then on to the Albuquerque Aquarium and Botanical Gardens. And, yes we will have lunch there. The cafe has very reasonable prices and a fantastic view of the fish in the Aquarium. We will then go to the Sandia Tram for sunset with a 4:00pm arrival. The Sandia Tram at Sunset is fantastic. It is the world's longest Tram. Sunset is 8:03 PM on May 23rd. Dinner is at the High Finance Restaurant which is at the top of the Sandia Mountains. Since we will be there by 4:00pm, that gives us plenty of time for an early trip back to Santa Fe, which is just one hour away.

Sunday, May 24th – The current plan is to take a day trip to Bandelier National Monument, Taos, and the Veterans Memorial. We should be back to Santa Fe mid afternoon to enjoy the shops and dinner in Santa Fe. The New Mexico Viper Club probably will not be joining us today.

Monday, May 25th – We will possibly meet the New Mexico Viper Club for breakfast, then a short side trip to Pecos National Historic Park and drive home.

There’s still time to get your reservations:

Room Rate - $149.00 plus tax for oversize King Deluxe rooms if you call early enough. Otherwise, you will get a regular King room for the same price. We will also have a complimentary Parlor Room for a meeting and party place. Reservations are due by April 22nd, 2009. For full refund, call by 4:00pm May 19th, 2009. Call 1-800-336-3676 or 505-988-2811 and state that you are with the Viper Car Club - Memorial Weekend Event. Ask for Dennis, Reservation Manager if there is a problem.
