I've been in Germany for 15 days! I already feel pretty jacked after all this mucking stalls, biking, running, and walking! My German is a little better, but not by much. It is a hard language to learn.
I have learned a lot of other things though! How to do a special gait on an Icelandic pony called a Tolt. I am also a pro at tacking up a horse now, washing a horse, raking a riding ring, working a horse in a round pen, and mucking stalls quickly! lol!
I've been to a few place as well.
- The Frieberg Castle
- A famous Church in Augsburg
- The dome in Augsburg
- The Augsburg zoo
The zoo was really cool! It was a scary bike ride there, because we had to bike through the city of Hochzoll. (I've never biked in a city) Then we had to take a bunch of back roads to get to the zoo. I thought we were lost, but we made it!
I love zoos! I should work at one someday. We saw many cool creatures such as leopards, lions, tigers, wild horses, rhinos, LOTS of ducks, and reptiles. Sierra quickly fell in love with this big, black bird who had red eyes, and ate baby chicks. She said he suited her personality. I kind of had to agree! I met a little monkey who was very friendly. He grabbed my finger through the fence, and kept trying to drag me in! It was hilarious!
I also got to touch a lemur. It ran past me while I was in the pen, and I reached out and touched it's tail. It was so soft!
Speaking of animals, the lady who is looking after Peeper for me got her a mate! Now they are Peeper and Cheeper! They might have babies by the time I get back!
Anyhow, I'm leaving for Italy Saturday! Blair and her family are going there for Easter holidays, and asked if we would like to come. Of course I said yes! I'm so Excited!!!
