I took up the challenge

I do not know how many of you know that horses are my passion. I have ridden a horse since I was a child. Nobody taught me, I mounted my horse bareback and I learned. My grandmother was always afraid of me, but when I proved her, she was very proud of me.

In Dominican Republic, I took up the challenge and rode a horse around 1000m above sea level. Unfortunately, there is no other option to get to this amazing place. The landscape immobilized me.

The great moment was breaking the fresh coconut and the delight of the juice.

It was a great day, full of unexpected experiences and meetings. Here is one of them. In the old house upstairs lived a small spider :)

I’d like to ride a horse on day.
I’m just scared to fall. 😊

Lol I am not scared, I guess if you hold on tight and without the horse runing with you like a race, you should be fine. Otherwise I am same as you I have never rode a horse

Riding a horse it is great freedom :)

I can imagine @gregbit you have succeeded in making have a strong wish to ride a horse

Under the professional eye you can learn how to ride a horse and get rid of fear. :)

there are few people who are interested in horse riding and on the mount you have to dare, great passion.

Thank you :) It is my passion :)

I am sure it is not easy to ride a horse and without a teacher, AWESOME..

It wasn't easy but I really wanted to ride a horse ;)

Really outstanding photography...i love it...

Thank you very much ;)

Very nice!! Bravo! You did it!
I loved horse riding! But my first experience was very shocking! The horse suddenly bolted while we were trekking along the mountain. The horse took me into bushes and trees, I had to keep my head low. Finally the instructor came to rescue me! That was a very temperamental horse!
Your horse looks so nice and kind!
Marvelous tour on horse back and fresh coconut milk!
Lovely day out in the mountain!
Mind you, that spider is big and serious!

Cheers.

Yeah, it was nice horse and I had a really great trip to the top of the mountain

Awesome living life by an example and following the passion :D

Horse is freedom. It was really great day ;)

Hope to see more from you :) I followed you!

I'm always admiring those riding a horse! So heats off 😃

Thank you. It is nice compliment :)

My pleasure :)

Looks like a very fun day. I've never ridden horses that much, but seems like it would be a fun way to get into the hills or hard to get places. As long as you stay on the horse. How big was the spider?

Not so big, I only took a close photo. I did it for my lovely wife @margaretwsie because she loves spiders. It was a surprise for her :) Thank you
