a second go…
Even though I wasn´t to sure if I would do it again, yesterday we went horseriding, here in Tupiza.
After our experience in Bariloche, where we had a real ´drill-intructor-guide´, I wasn´t too sure if I was going to like it. The more in the past our horseride-experience in Bariloche became, the more I forgot about the nice bits and just remembered the scary part.
Jannis convinced me that if I wouldn´t go horseriding again soon, I would probably never go horseriding anymore in the future. As this spot seemed to be a good place for it, as the surroundings here are very beautiful and it gives you a real ´wild west cowboy feeling´, we booked for a short 3-hours horseride. But only after a lot of talking to the tour operator…
And it turned out to be really lovely!! The guide was nice and relaxed, the horse was very kind, a dog came along for support, the weather was beautiful and the homemade local cornballs we got for lunch were very nice. And most important, it wasn´t scary!! But I must admit the whole trip we only went on a really slow ride.
We even extended the 3 hours into 5 hours and I enjoyed the whole trip. Today I don´t even have pains, as this time I didn´t cramp.
Next time I go for the multiple day horseride option 😉
Love Martine.

En jij bent nog wel zo´n dierenliefhebber. Verwonderlijk dat je nog nooit op een paard had gereden.

Hai Nick,
Weet je niet meer dat jij vroeger een antipaardrijder was? Ik geloof ook dat de manege te ver was, dus anders was ik misschien toch wel op paardrijden gegaan.
Liefs, Martine.

ja, de manage was helemaal in Zelhem. Ik snap nu niet dat ik een anti-paardrijder was maar ik kan het me wel herinneren.
Wij zijn van plan om eens rondom Canberra te gaan paardrijden. Spierpijn zullen we dan zeker wel gaan krijgen.
