8:00am ride on a Fresian named "Shalimar"

Down the bumpy dirt road to Playa Negra at 7:00 am by myself! Had to dawn my brave hat along with my Spurs to head down a dirt road alone in a foreign country. But worth it! Fun ride! "Shalimar" is a 9 year old Fresian and has all those Mare qualities. Watch out when you touch her rear during grooming...she will raise her hind leg to threaten. Don't ask too hard she pops her rump in the air...don't hold her at all through the bridle...adjust the flexsion then release. Don't bug her with your leg but somehow keep the hind end moving. She was fun. Headed back 2 more times this week.
