On our day off we rode horses at a neighbor’s and went to a bustling chocolate festival in Perugia.
We are exceedingly inexperienced riders and hunters with hounds and guns filled the woods so we didn’t leave the farm, but it was still quite fun. I made it into the saddle much more smoothly than the last time we rode, which was in Costa Rica five years ago. My horse was called Betty and Jack’s was Merlin.
The chocolate festival was the place to be, even though it was the last day of a TEN DAY event.
The best thing we ate was some candied lemon rind dipped in chocolate…
Note the enormous Lindt chocolate balls in the picture above.
Whew, I was having blog withdrawal symtoms.
ReplyDeleteIt appears that you and Betty like each other. Your dream of hanging out with horses of 20 years ago is coming to life. Jack, spending a day enjoying chocolate is grand indeed.
ReplyDeleteThis is my favorite so far!
