Carole's Bulgaria Riding Trip

This year Carole and Nighean's annual riding holiday was in Bulgaria.

They rode over 250km in the week without having to open a single gate - amazing for UK riders.

A few days in the Bulgarian capital, Sofia, ended the holiday in more ways than one as Nighean got a nasty kidney infection, she managed to fly home but ended up in hospital in Lancaster for over a week.

Ooh and Carole only fell off once! Great bruise on her bum!(sadly no photo)


Lovely wide open spaces - no fences or gates



These long troughs are everywhere - put there in the Communist times

This is Lizzie, my room-mate in our largest room of the week

Cave system where they stored fuel and filmed The Expendables 

Lunch break

My horse for the week; he was lovely (Arab)

Great trailer - they did horse international transport in winter

Horses ate the corn cobs on the move
