Inspired in part by the horses eating outside of our room in the mountains, Josh and I spent an afternoon horseback riding.
My horse was Effie and Josh rode Bessie.
We spotted a wallaby (looks like a smaller kangaroo) and an echidna (looks like a porcupine or hedgehog) but I didn't snap any photos of them. We rode for about an hour through open pastures and the bush.
Even though the presence of an eight year old and her younger sister in our group meant we never went any faster than a brief trot and we had to wear helmets instead of cowboy hats, it was still fun to entertain cowboy fantasies!
