The Coachman

You know one of the great things about going to events in europe such as one of the largest Horse Fairs in Denmark....was the freedom of all those who attended.  what do i mean by that?  Well we entered at our own risk taking responsibility for ourselves.  This fair consisted of no less than 900 horses.  Dazzling stallions passed by, horses and people of all sorts not to mention dogs kids, parents all sorts really all getting along fine.  I really noticed how free it was no one was worrying about getting sued and it wasn't till I came home to Australia that I realised sadly how Litigous (if that's such a word) this country has become..................what happened to being self responsible?

hi we have been busy finalising details for our equestrian tours of Europe.  Soon I will post up details on the net this fantastic tour is affordable and will showcase 5 famous breeds and studs of Europe as well as a week of classical dressage riding at Lipica Lipizzaner Stud..........stay tuned.  I have so much enjoyed our travels and times in Europe with my family and horses and so the price of our tour makes it affordable for most to experience this also.

Below a pic of me and a lovely natured Lipizzaner horse I can't say the name of! at Slovenia's famous Lipica Stud......

 I also wanted to say thanks for those who have given me some advice on writing my blog always open to suggestions.

kind regards Bec

As you might know we have been working in Switzerland now for about 2 months.  Gary has been Postillion for the Gotthard Post Coach driving a 5 in hand to the alpen passes. The season here is soon to finish and we will be heading to Slovenia where Rebecca will be riding the Lipizzaner horses at Lipica Stud for a week.  It is a 400year old stud they send some of their horses to the Vienna riding school also.  After here we head to our property in Poland where we will be working on the setup for international equestrians to come and experience life in europe competing and training.   We hope some Australians will also take advantage of this central and affordable location to realise their equestrian dreams. 

Then back to Germany for some more driving through Bavaria and home on the 24th of November.  Where we will continue our tuition in driving for our students.  thank you also if you have joined our site we hope to keep you updated more often!

Kind Regards Bec and Gary.
