Today I headed bush! Sounds dramatic doesn't it? And 'bush' may be overstating the situation somewhat...
I actually went to visit my sister and her family at Glossodia, about a one and a quarter hour drive from my home in Rosebery. Upon arriving (and previously warned by Craig - my brother-in-law) the clan was found at the pony club, a short one minute drive from their house.
Charlotte is quite the accomplished rider, and below are a few shots from the day, along with a link to more images. Please enjoy...
Charlotte enters the dressage arena on 'Teddie'.
A fair degree of concentration at play, both on the part of the pony and rider, with each taking it in turns to lead...
Charlotte demonstrated her confidence on her horse back (pony back?) and revealed in the opportunity to indulge in her favourite pastime.
Proud parents after Charlotte exited from displaying her proficiency for the judges.
Moving between markers 'E' and 'R' at a gentle trot - as if I know what I am talking about! I am reliably informed there was a course to be followed, and I'm confident that Charlotte was following that course.
For me, just concentrating on where I stood (we are in the countryside now people, with lots of ponies) and trying not to put Charlotte off!
Beaming and beautiful sister Julie.
As promised, here is the link to more pictures...
