Horse Ride to Hairy Legs

A liitle sore after riding bareback





On Monday afternoons i go horse riding at Emirates Equestrian Centre.
It is amazing there I love it.












My favorite horses are Silver, Sharon, Moss,  Emerald  and Hollie. I learnt to canter on Hollie :). Emerald and I can have quite a lesson  because she understands my teacher so he can do the listening for me. If you come near me when I am on Sharon watch out!  No one can take us down, have you seen her, she is as big as a draught horse. And last but not least Silver my favorite as you can see right below we take it to the text level.



My teacher is Madame Jenifer she is amazing. I know I not supposed to gossip, but a girl in my class played Annie on Broadway. Well maybe I am exadgerating a little bit.



You might be wondering how we get our horses? Well we do it Indian style, all the keepers line up with the horses and the main Indian man tells us who we are riding.

You might be thinking this is not such a fancy place, well, you will be surprised there is always a competition and the teachers have a uniform but the main thing that makes it fancy

                                                    ITS          BRITISH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





Some times if we are lucky, Madame Jennifer lets us ride bareback and happily but sadly I get Silver all the time and boy does that horse shed  So after all that craziness, I started with normal day to day horse riding but ending up with hairy legs.

Kayaking to the Edge of the "World"

Image
My morning paddle was not as exotic as the title sounds.  The "World" is a series of artificial islands created off the coast of Dubai, roughly in the shape of the World. Within the world there are groups of sand islands each shaped in such a way that they look like one of the continents. It seemed like a good destination for a morning training paddle. Dubai skyscrapers obscrured by the mist What had been interesting was the recent high levels of humidity which combined with no breeze which created a mist on the coast.  As a result, I headed out to the World on a compas bearing.  It is always pleasant paddling on a still morning without seeing land. I must admit, the World was a bit of a dissapointment.  There has been almost no construction on any of the islands so there is not much to see.  The islands are surrounded by a break water and as soon as I paddled into the entry of the breakwater I was intercepted by World Se...

Athens

Not a bad backdrop for an evening drink. When we decided to go to Kalymnos, Lucy was very disappointed that our planned itinerary did not include significant Greek historical sites. She has developed a recent fascination with the Greek Gods, thanks to the Percy Jackson series of books, and was keen to see some relevant sites.  It was easy enough to include Athens, a quick Aegean flight from Kos and a taxi to the city saw us on the roof top bar of The Central hotel enjoying a drink with the illuminated Acropolis in the background. Is it Poseidon or Zeus?  We decided it was Zeus:) The next day Kate and I got out for an early run through the parks near the Acropolis before returning to the hotel to pick up the girls for a hop on hop off bus trip.  The stop at the Archaeology Museum proved to be a false start as it was still closed but we did a little shopping the enjoyed walking around this amazing Museum.   The girls were t...

France...again

Image
It was a pleasant surprise when I discovered that I had a work conference in Paris in the first week in April.  It seems that after moving to India from Germany that we spend most of our holidays in France. This holiday was slightly different as Lucy has decided that we are not “cool” travel companions so she packed her bags to visit her Aunty Anne and her nephews in Sydney. Kate, Ada and I had the good fortune to be invited to a to the country house of a French friend, Geraud.  His family holiday house is in the Central Massif, the volcanic region in the centre of France which is as remote as it gets in France.  The region has some small ski fields, although it was the very end of ski season, and is primarily known for agriculture, in particular the cheese and cured meats which we sampled at every opportunity. LaBro the small Castle overlooking Chastreix Ada in her element...mother nature and buying freshly made french pastries! and walking in t...
