Horse Camp – Summer 2014 Edition
[Written 13 JULY 2014. Groan.]
We decided to send the big kids to horse riding school this summer. Anna went for five weeks last summer, and Bjarki for one, and it turned out to be a no-fuss, no-muss experience, as in they didn’t whine about going or act up while there. (19 images total)

Bjarki was out on the playground and nowhere in sight.
I… just… want… something… greeeeen…

Fancy hair work.
Pretty horse.
There were a couple of lambs at the school the first week.
Time to go walk the horses to the field.

Still walking.
Approaching the big road.
They have to cross a semi-busy two-lane road to get to the grassy field, but it seems to work ok.

Walking back, this guy passed by me on his horse.
Bjarki with a participation medal and lots of fresh flowers.
Happy with his medal.
