Stellae Boreales – An Ottawa Suzuki Strings Violin Ensemble

Today was so much fun! There were two activities, riding Icelandic horses or whale watching.  I went horse riding. The horses are so beautiful! By the way, don't call them ponies or the horses will be upset! Although they are pony sized, they have a horses' nature. The horses were very friendly and loved all the attention we gave them, I gave my horse my apple core from my lunch so that made her really happy, but don't tell! We rode on a beautiful trail, the view of the houses from a hill was lovely! The horses were all so good and calm. One of the kids said, "This is like being in heaven!" The Icelandic horse is very special, its breed is still pure because once you bring the horses out of Iceland, you can't bring them back in. They were brought by the Vikings. They can also do two extra gaits, the Tolt and the Pace as well as the usal gaits, walk, trot, canter, and gallop. Icelandic horses are awsome!
