Florida Carriage Museum: Day Three (Long)

My final lesson at the Florida Carriage Museum was a lesson in driving a pair. Due to circumstances something happened and I don't have pictures of the actual lesson. I do have pictures of the horses.

Gordon, the left horse

It was a lot of fun driving Gordon and Tristan, and they were pretty good for me. It's too bad this is our last lesson, because I enjoyed driving at the museum.

Here come the pictures! Most of them are of --surprise-- Gypsy Vanners. I wasn't able to walk around as much as I wanted to, but I still got plenty!

When I walked out, the first equines I saw were the Falabella and the guard donkey.

Right across from them were the Haflinger and hunter pony. They were a lot closer to the fence today than they were yesterday, so I got better pictures. And I got to pet them--at last!

Hold on, those pictures suck. Gack. They were the best ones I got of these two, though, so I'm sorry.

I got some pictures of the big bay warmblood. He was very friendly and I got to pet him today.

What a cutie!

On to the Gypsy Vanners! The first two I came across were two mares. Due to bad lighting the pictures aren't very good, but some of them turned out.

And then I came across the pasture with the male horses. I'm not sure if they're stallions or geldings--but they're definitely male. They were whinnying to the mares I had just left and being oh so photogenic.

Looking noble 

Look at him with his nose in the air...

Another good-ish shot

How cute!

Is that a good enough pony fix? Yes? Ok, good. 

I'll be back home next week, sewing like a madwoman. I'd like to make myself a few dresses over the summer, and I have to make/put together a costume for myself as Minerva McGonagall. A couple of my friends and I hope to go to the midnight premier of Harry Potter 7.2 and we're dressing up. Does anyone know what Minerva would wear in warm weather?
