Rolling into New Mexico!

Olivia spotted us driving past and enthusiastically stopped to meet the team and hold the torch.

The first stop is the famous and most beautiful Blue Hole in Santa Rosa, a sinkhole and spring-fed pool.

Sapphire-blue pool in the middle of the desert, 62 degrees F and 80 feet deep.

Pure and clear water, a swim was a must!

Running into beautiful Santa Fe.

Our first stop was to the Southside Library where the Sri Chinmoy Oneness-Home Peace Run features on the events schedule.

We were warmly welcomed by a crowd of local residents who came especially to be part of the Peace Run.

This event was organised by our incredibly dedicated local coordinator, Sunamita Lim, pictured centre. We sang our Peace Run song and presented the run.

Aaron Oesting, librarian who organised the team`s visit, received our Torch-Bearer Award for his service to the library and the community. A big thank you Aaron!

The community members had many questions which we were happy to answer.

We are so grateful that Santa Fe Southside Library was dedicated as the 7th Sri Chinmoy Peace Blossom in New Mexico!

We were very happy to offer a certificate of appreciation to the Friends of the Santa Fe Public Library who raised the funds for the Peace Blossom Plaque and support over one thousand events every year in Santa Fe Libraries.

A big thank you to everyone who came along!

Having fun in a local cowboy shop.

Thank you Jack for treating the team to the most authentic Mexican meal at Tomasitas Restaurant.
