As much as I love to ride, I also love to see the joy on the horses when they are let lose in an open terrain (more precisely, my brother’s garden!).

With Sahara being as dominant as she is, she’ll want Arwen to follow cue, and so a lot of her efforts concentrate on getting her teammate going as well!

Arwen however has had a big belly these past months, and after a while, Sahara finds herself alone in wanting to “waste energy”.

However, by then, she’s so into the whole thing that she does mind. If she’s in a good mood, there’ll be lots of bucking about - so much space means so much freedom!

She’ll only stop to shake her head…

Gallop some more…

Stop to shake her head again (I have yet to understand the reason for this complaint…)

…and then hit freedom again!

During all this time, Arwen (who stopped prancing about ages ago) does what she does the very best: standing up straight and being just utterly beautiful in true “sarauniya” (queen-like) fashion!

Preferably by the gate as she knows she is the one who enters and leaves first.

After a while, with no Ishtar to attend to her, she relaxes and moves about a bit, as even a Queen in this part of the world has to walk by herself…

Sahara looks at her teammate, tries to do a Sarauniya pose, but failing in comparison, she hits the orad again!

Much to Tabita’s great delight, who loves having the horses come visit in her garden!
