Day 1

33.5km today from Beulah to a wonderfully enormous field just after Llanpumsaint, a little village about 7km north of Carmarthen. The horses will surely enjoy every bit they can possibly eat of the grass on the field and Maggie and I are in the tent having eaten and almost thinking about sleeping. Well, I am, she already is in a deep sleep.

There is even a great Internet connection for the netbook here and the second farm I asked at immediately directed me to this field - super, hope it continues like this... :o)

Just a little photo of today... one of our field in the morning as it was already too dark for good pics on arrival.

  2. Hi Breno, thanks for your interestin the ride :o)
    Riding in Brazil sounds wonderful - I wish I could join you.
    The panniers come with the packsaddle and I got them from Custom Pack Rigging, a Canadian company. So far they are absolutely great and my pony, who normally doesn't like saddles, is taking it perfectly.
    Are you in touch with the LRG? They have a load of good info about the equipment.
