Actually at the moment I don't have an horse. I had a 5-gaited gelding, former show horse, Fáfnir frá Akureyri for 8 years before I had to put him to sleep due to health problems at the age of 23. With him I did mostly trail riding. I was still studying when I had him and I decided not to get another one before I had a steady job somewhere (a bit difficult to constantly move around with a horse). After a while started thinking that I don't have time for a horse anyway and abandoned my plans to buy an icelandic. But "unfortunately" I fell in love with a 6 yo mare this summer and now she's coming here probably in September (they need her where she is now until they can ride the mares with foals again). :-D I don't have yet any pictures of Fjóla (vom Wittenmoor, German import) and nothing in my computer of Fafu since the old computer died a while ago... But I'll try to take some pictures of icelandics next week when I go to Swedish Lapland to ride. Krisse from Finland
