La Mesilla is Magic!
I loved my dining experience at La Posta! It was all decorated for Day of the Dead, but I think it must always be a "trip" to see their decor! There are tropical birds making lots of jungle noise, high ceilings loaded with memorabilia and art and glittering festive lights. The ladies room is like 1930's Hollywood. I also had so much fun wandering around the historic plaza and side streets, taking photos of the rustic beauty. Shopping was excellent. There was plenty of original and unique stuff. I found a couple of art galleries open, and the local art was very high quality with reasonable prices. I also ate at Don Felix cafe, and enjoyed everything so much! My favorite was the Cocoa Flan dessert! They have a wonderful courtyard for outdoor dining and they played current popular Mexican music that was really good!

Historical and breathtaking at Christmas
Old Mesilla is iconic at Christmas, Christmas eve is our very favorite time to visit. The plaza offers restaurants/cafes and shopping within a variety of price ranges. A chill Southwestern feel. This village was incorporated in 1848...I recommend that you read up on the history a bit before your visit.

Quaint little villiage
Every year my fiance' and I make it a point to stop at the Old Mesilla Villiage. It's atmosphere is that of quaint, cozy and you feel as if you've been here all of your life. It's small, but there are so many great shops to browse, nice people all around and the fudge/brownie shop is a must. Just sitting on a bench in the town square watching the people and activity is enjoyment enough.
