A well deserved rest

A well deserved rest
The horses had come all the way from the south over the feared Sprengisandur highland crossing. They get a well deserved one week's rest before making the return journey.

hFF folks!

Thanks a lot, Rosa! Icelandic horses are very resilient and are out even in the worst of weather. They look funny when they all turn their backsides to the wind and rain;-)

A lovely grouping and so well photographed. Did you ask the two horses to lay down so they didn't block the view of the other horses? :-)

Islandpferde - wie schön!
Ich mag diese Rasse besonders gerne, bin als Jugendliche auf einem Bauernhof, auf dem auch Islandpferde gehalten wurden, geritten. Auf unserer Hurtigruten-Tour in Norwegen habe ich den Ausflug "Lofoten per Pferd", auch auf einem Islandpferd, mitgemacht. Obwohl es nach ca. 38 Jahren sehr gewöhnungsbedürftig war, auf einem Pferd zu sitzen, war es wunderschön!

Gudrun club has replied to WiePet club
Herzlichen Dank, Wiebke! Ich war nie ein Pferdenarr, aber die Islandpferde haben einfach was! Der Lofotenausflug war sicher klasse, die Westküstenstrände sind ja besonders schön...
