There are museums, and then there are "living museums" that the kids (and mom and dad) will surely find interesting. El Rancho de las Golondrinas is such a place. See attractions like original colonial buildings on this site that date back to the early 18th century as well as other buildings that have been reconstructed to reflect the style of that time period. The buildings and other items presented here tell the fascinating story of the early settlement of New Mexico. The museum is closed from November through March.

That elusive trout won't be that difficult to find on the end of your line when you head out on a recreational fishing excursion with the pros from The Reel Life.

You can also arrange a day trip to nearby waters for more excellent fishing.

Add some sizzle to your romance when the two of you take classes at the Santa Fe School of Cooking.
