On a further expedition I managed to persuade Julie to go by horse. Having already experienced elephant as a means of transport, she was somewhat spoilt and reluctant to mount such an inferior beast. But for her first time on a horse, she did very well. This was no trot around the paddock. We climbed up paths of boulders that sometimes were at an angle of 45%. Coming down was precarious as the path was unsuited to metal hooved creatures. They often slipped and on one occassion my steed fell to his knees. It was a baptism by fire into the world of horse riding. The boys loved it. From left to right mounted: Julian, Sammy, Julie, Michael, Daniel, Me and Suzanne and Rob in front (click on images to enlarge). Posted by Hello

You're all far braver than me. I would have been terrified of trusting myself on anything other than my own two legs.
