My Horse Riding Class

      Hello everybody I want to tell you about the fun I have riding horses in Eiterfeld. I go to a riding Stable once or twice a week, on Fridays or Saturdays depending on how much time I have. There they have a few different types of horses that we can ride. My favorite is "Socke" or "Socks" in English. But sometimes I don't get to ride him so I have to settle for another one that is available. 

     The first things we do when we get there, if we are early enough, is pick out which horse we would like to ride. Then we get our brushes and other cleaning tools to use for brushing the horses down. After that we choose the proper sattle, and sattle our horses.

     In all of the the other stables that I've been to I have used a western sattle, here though I have to use an English sattle - which keeps me busy trying to get used to it. If it weren't for this sattle problem I would be much further in my knowledge and experience. Until I gain some experience with this sattle I don't feel safe trotting and galloping. The last time I was efficient in those speeds I was using a western sattle. Below are is a Photo gallery of me on Saturday the 10th of November. My Dad drove me there for his first time, which is probably why there are so many pictures. He was fascinated to see me riding a horse. This is something that he never did as a child growing  up.
