Horses…not on the plate!

After a weekend of remont (remodeling) and running around, Beth had a special treat for Kiikzhan and I (and herself!). While out in the village we stopped into to visit her friend Sveta at the local horse stables. Sveta immediately asked if we wanted to ride! For Beth, who had to get rid of her horse in the US and someday hopes to have a ranch, these few hours were sent from above. For Kiikzhan and I who have memories of horseback riding only from childhood, it was a great experience! Well, except for poor Kiikzhan who felt too bad for his old horse to get him moving! It was a memorable afternoon though and I was happy to experience a little more of the horse culture KZ is so famous for!
