Day 68 - Bandelier National Monument and Los Alamos, NM
We drove about an hour to the north to see Bandelier National Monument which is in Los Alamos county, NM. At Bandolier we explorer the Pueblo's (Cave dwellers) of the Indians that occupied the area 1500 years ago and in some cases still live in them. After our walk through Bandelier we drove to Los Alamos where the first atomic bombs were researched, made and then dropped to help stop WW2 in the Pacific.
