Horses, my greatest passion

This photo was taken 1982 when I had the possibility to ride this magnificent Grey Stallion at Gezira Sporting Club in Cairo, Egypt. He was the horse of my life.

Some five years have passed and I was back on a dancing horse at the MG Stables near the Pyramides at Giza.

My last trip to Egypt was 1995 and I made a 40 km riding trip in the desert with this windfast mare.
One part of my heart is always there.

I had the opportunity to buy this dear old boy Argos 1993 when his owners returned from Syria to Germany.
Pictured here with Fin&Est Ch Marjaniemen Aswad Qusai as a puppy.

After the sad loss of Argos my groom Aboud found me this magnificent stallion Lord.

Lord was half arab and about ten years of age. I had the priveledge to own him for two years.

I wish he runs somewhere free now.

After 10 years I was back on a horse again. During a wonderful long weekend with friends at Iceland I made 1½ hour riding with this lovely little icelandic horse.

I thought I will never ride again but after the riding trip at Iceland I decided to try if I can do it.
I have now started to ride at the same stable I used to ride some 30 years ago. Photo was taken after the lesson with Kessu under
Ani Paajanen.
