Back in the sadle

.
I used to do horsebackriding when I was younger. But now I've hardly done it since I went on a jumping camp in Ireland 2004. I haven't had the time or the opportunity to do it after that, except a few private lessons in the USA.

Me on the pony Calvin in Wicklow.

I really missed it so I decided to go to a stable here in Stockholm to ride again. It was so lovely! And the nature was just wonderful at that place, with some snow and everything.

I had to walk in the forest the last bit to get to the stable. 

 Which I didn't mind since I had some company :)

This is how the trail looked like where me and three other people rode. 



"My" horse Trollet - which means "the troll".

On my way back I stopped by a coffee shop to buy a latte since I was a bit cold. 

This was an amazing day, even though my legs still ache. I have to do it soon again!
