BEAUTIFUL HORSES

Friday March 14 was a great day for a group of us residents. We rose early and got on the Bus in VeronaWalk before the Sun was out.

Our group ate, drove, and ate some more until we got to our destinations. We made two stops. In this post we will share pictures of the Lipizzaner Stallions.

The featured stop was to see the beautiful dancing horses on their farm in central Florida. These horses were rescued from destruction by the Soviet troops in WW II by Gen. George Patton. They have since found a home in the US and frequently perform in various cities.

We got the opportunity to watch them train, and to visit with them in both the corral and stable.  Below are a couple pictures of these fine animals. In a day or so I'll develop the pictures from Soloman's Castle. For now enjoy the horses.
