From Beja, Portugal, 2008. Like a trail class, just in fast forward. :)
The man riding has some of the best natural horsemanship I've seen. Great, now I really want a Lusitano too.

How cool was that !

Wayne, agreed! I'd love to photograph that, or even better, try a course myself on one of those gorgeous Lusitanos.
It's a Lusitano, nothing can really compare ;-)))) (proud of our horses :-) ) I used to do this but now I'm doing Dressage with my Luso-Arabian horse! Cool blog, congratulations, I think I've seen you around in equestrian forums (and Facebook).
Thank you Luisa. Wow, that must have been so much fun, I'd love to ride that course, on that horse too! How can you be satisfied with dressage after doing that? ;) LOL
Hahahah.. yeah, it's rather different actually. The feeling of an amazing extended trot isn't just the same with Dressage training or with Working Equitation training, where horses are a bit more "compressed" both at the front and behind. But I still ride working equitation at times, with a very nice horse (not my own). Well, just come here and try both!!! :-D
Watch out Louisa, I may just take you up on that!
Just let me know when you come :-) You're always welcome :-)
Louisa, I have actually been to Portugal once, and it was truly magical ... until I fell asleep on my stomach sunbathing at the beach, got more sunburned than I've ever been, and had to sit on those wonderful airplane seats for over 9 hours the next day to get home.
But other than that, I had a great time! :) Within the next 2 years, I'd like to make it back there, and I'll be sure to let you know if I do.
If you're ever in the States, specifically AZ, feel free to drop me a line too! We hope to have a new home with a very cute guest apartment over the barn soon. ;)
Do you mean AZ as in Arizona?? You shouldn't have invited me, I'll be showing up for sure :-) Always wanted to go there!!!! Thank you so much!
(regarding your sunburn, at least you fell asleep... I was once inside the water for 1 hour in the sun... now THAT was stupid! I couldn't get fully dressed for 2 days :-) )
I recently came accross your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I dont know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.
