Because I had so much fun yesterday, here are more Horses of the world. Top left is the Palomino (Quarter Horse), American Miniature, Norwegian Fjord, Ahkal-Teke (Turkmenistan) (but it might be an American Mustang, I can’t remember), Gypsy Vanner (US/Canada), and Paso Fino (Puerto Rico). One of my favorites of the day was the Icelandic Pony (below). I’ve seen some beautiful photos of them in Iceland, so it was great to see one in person. They’re compact, short ponies. Because of the strict laws of Iceland, once a horse leaves the island, it can never go back. Made me a bit sad for him, really. It’s amazing they survive the extremes of Iceland (one of my bucket list destinations, by the way). I sure enjoyed my time with Stacy and the horses.
