Iceland day 5 - Horses :D

Today my parents had to work a bit, so Ludvig, Ida and I went horseback riding. Iceland horses are pretty short (but don't ever call them ponys to a person from Iceland's face) and they have tons of hair. They also have their own special gate (tølt) that is pretty cool. When the people working at the stables heard that I already knew how to do this they decided to give me a rather lively horse. I had to hold back the entire time as all he wanted to do was run past the other horses. It was real nice to go horseback riding again and I think I managed to try the special gate at least once, but it might just have been a weird trot rather than tølt, can't know for sure as I never tried before.
