After horse riding lesson, it’s always a pleasure to sit on the balcony of the stable, enjoying a cold drink and entertained by watching my coach training various horses.

Last ride of 2014

On this last Sunday of 2014, we had our weekly ritual of horseback riding. I love this particular shot, as it comes out so clear, yet the action still could be seen from the dust / sand flying around, left by the horses legs.

My little one insisted on wearing his GoPro Camera (on his helmet), a gift from his grandparents from his last birthday 3 weeks ago.

Pony games

We organised our little one’s birthday party as a full outdoor event. It was more like a team building exercise, incorporating horse and water elements. The party started with soccer game, while waiting for the late comers, followed by foot tag, with balloon attached on 1 leg of each participants.

The 3rd game was pony riding while carrying a tray full of glasses of water. Each team needs to assign their riders, water fillers and bucket filler at the other end. Still on the pony, the following game was egg on spoon race. The kids had a blast :-).

The happiest time

Tags

Everytime after we finish riding, we like to let the horses run free and play with each other. After few minutes, we open the water sprinkler and they just go ga ga, running here and there chasing the water.

We normally like to do it outdoor. Unfortunately on this particular day, the outdoor arena was occupied, thus we made a do with the covered one. I promise to take an outdoor version, which should be much better.

Westerning

Jack is a very gentle horse. The kids love to take turn hopping on and off trying the western style of riding. Here they are trying to instantly manoeuvre left and right on the other person’s command.

Ground work

Currently he prefers to work with horses than simply riding them. It’s an absolutely wonderful activity to practice his patience. He always starts with being irritated when they don’t listen to them at the beginning. But after few attempts, then the horses started to listen to him and following him around in the arena. It’s just such a joy to watch.

From the same person whose saddle I previously posted here, this one is his latest creation, another beauty.

When the ears go back

When they are not used to being together in such a close proximity, some horses are just too unhappy that the others are invading their space. This morning was such a case, when my older son was riding with a friend.

Being a beginner, I am quite pleased that he was not panic, and most importantly, he stayed on the horse’s back and continued.

The best part after horse riding lesson is when you can take your horse for a walk.
