Arabian Nights

We had a very quiet day today - stayed home and read, napped, watched tv - it was cloudy and cool outside.  But tonight we did one of my favorite things to do - went to the Arabian Nights dinner and horse show.  About 1/2 of the horses are Arabians and they are just SO pretty!

The horses are very well trained.......

........and so are the riders.

I love this picture, even though the quality is not so good.

This was a quadrille, and so nice to watch!


A Spanish presentation - very unusual.

These were the "gypsies".

Even a good old square dance on horseback.

And of course the black stallion!

I'm happy to say that the prince and princess finally did get together.  :-)

Of course I love the appaloosas!  At the end, they turn all the horse that are not being ridden into the arena for a good run.  You never saw such kicking up of heels!  Fun to watch!

I took an allergy pill before the show, and even dared to touch Melissa's horse, Silas!  What a fun night!
