As well as exploring my new environment and familiarising myself with the local amphibians, I added a new activity to my repertoire – horse riding!
The feeling is really elating; the wind rushing past ones ‘ears’, the power of the horse below you and the speed at which you travel when the horse isn’t held back.
I must however admit to initially being rather intimidated by the size difference, but once we had introduced ourselves and taken a few turns around the practice area we were fast friends.
We have already arranged for my next sojourn which I am looking forward to immensely!
