Hi everyone. I have a story for you all!
As some of you know I am in Holland for Christmas and today my dad and I decided to go out shopping. Dad's friend had suggested we go to this outdoor store where they also had riding gear, so we went to have a look. It was a really nice place, very pretty, great stuff. We got in the car and drove about down the road for about three seconds and TA-DAA there was another equestrian shop....
... or should I say equestrian WORLD! The place is honestly the size of Walmart, and then filled with only tack, riding clothes and horse supplies! They have every color and size of everything you can imagine... needless to say we spent a few lovely hours shopping!
I even got a reflective yellow saddle pad fro riding on the roads!
The boot department was like Harry Potter picking out a wand at the shop, they had stacks and stacks of big long boot boxes with boots of every size, shape, discipline, color and price! But of course, the ones I needed weren't there... me and my damn short legs!
So next week we are going to an equestrian boot shop... yes, that's right, and entire store only for riding boots!
I'll keep you all posted on how that goes...
You gotta love this country (well, atleast the Dutch horse culture
)
