Awasi Patagonia
Riding
Awasi was amazing, first the riding then Rosario
and the list goes on.
Galloping in the pampas is fantastic - galloping for miles. I had a wonduful
horse
called... I've forgotten, but he was
REALLY fast I am talking Really fast !!!!
I just love it. We had a very gaucho looking gaucho called Daniel
ride with us who smoked continuously and could even light a cigaret in mid
gallop.

Anyway it was amazing/
fantastic/ every other word you could find that means that !!!!!!!!
Everything
Everything was good about Awasi except the hot
tub in which the water was brown and we couldn't see anything so we didn't get in. But we did a walk, the steepest walk I have ever done. We went with Patrick
and I was determined to be first and I WAS FIRST !!!

| Me first at the top of the BIG hill |
Woooooo I shouted when I got to the top. We had a snack up there and skidded back down. That was fun!!!!!!!
On our way down we saw a Condor come incredible close it was amazing. Daddy managed to get a snap.
El Galpon
We only stayed a short
stay but a fun stay. Carlos (the owner)
took us on a ride and gave us a demo on riding with no stirrups.

After that we did canter/gallop and I rode with no stirrups.(You just have to
cling with your legs) My Uk riding school will seem tame by comparison when I get back. On the way back to the house
we stopped of to look at the foals, One of them was 10 DAYS old beautiful
!!!!!!!!
That night we watched some good dancers dance the tango and something else.

I
loved the meat they had and we saw it being cooked smoky!!!
Oh yes, and we saw the only advancing glacier in this part of the world. It was amazing and I will never forget the Perito Moreno glacier. We saw it from both land and lake.

We arrived at Peuma Hue
and went riding the first day. That was fun. I was put on a three year old
horse, she was called Mumba. She was a really good horse! She jumped a big log that
was 80 cm high and 80 cm wide- thats the biggest I think I have ever jumped. We
gallop along the beach really fast and through the water going very deep!!!!!
It is amazing :)
Chris the person who rides
with us is so nice. She has been with horses all through her life, she has
grown up with horses. I have gone riding with her twice by myself, she knows
what I like. Jumping, galloping, galloping on the beach and through the water.
Every time we rode,the dogs came with us I liked that and they were all English
sheep dogs. Thank you to Chris for making it a very nice time riding!!!!!!!
Enough of that. This might
sound boring but it's amazing. I have a BIG allergy to cats as some of you
know. BUT here I am touching lots of cats and not getting itchy. I used to be
sick if I snuggled a cat and I might have just groan out of it which is
Fantasmegorical!!!!!!!!!!
One time daddy went swimming in the lake. It was freezing so
Mummy and I only went to our belly buttons- that was hard enough. Daddy and I
love skidding stones on the lake Daddy once skidded the sone 12 times and I
skidded 8 that was amazing (this was our best score in the whole of the
holiday). I loved Peuma Hue!!!!
