    And what is it with Simon's leg? I swear he has a perfect leg position ALL THE TIME--regardless of different saddles, galloping, whatever. It just never changes. He is superhuman LOL.

    The Sunscreen War of 2024 between you and Simon has me in fits of giggles. So fun to see you all joking around in addition to witnessing such wonderous scenery and wildlife.
    Big thanks to you, the Horizon Horseback team, and Pete for all this great footage!

    It’s such a breath of fresh air to see horses being treated right! They are well-muscled and taken care of, knowing how to carry themselves. I am also very catious with riding in foreign countries, but this looks fab!❤
