Weekends for me mean an obligatory horse back ride in to the Nigerien bush!

Last week, my sister and I had one of our greatest rides ever, and how fortunate then that I decided to bring the camera!

Riding out of Zinder only takes a moment (10 minutes)

Having crossed the main road, most of the buildings between you and the bush are under construction

This future mansion for instance is the guesthouse of a rich Nigerien entrepreneur in Niamey

My sister on Arwen, heading out of town

The girls Sahara & Arwen are always eager to head out in the bush!

Arwen’s belly is growing but she has no intensions of being left behind, so Junior must be getting a jump start on things, being introduced to the Zinderien bush so early in life….

Leaving civilization behind… Love it!!

Meet the Zinderien bush - an endless expanse of nature!

There are few places in the world that I enjoy more! Which is why this post gets an obligatory makes me happy tag!
