Æskan og hesturinn 2012

Friday afternoon 14 excited kids and their horses met in Saltvík to go to Akureyri and take part in the show "Æskan og hesturinn 2012". They were accompanied by 12 grown-ups, 6 cars, 4 horse- and 1 luggagetrailer. 
When we arrived the first thing to do was to unload the horses and allow them to roll over in the paddock. Then we cleaned the stable, put the horses inside, unloaded the back of Svanhildur's car and sorted all saddles, bridles and helmets. Afterwards we went to the restaurant Greifinn where we had a very delicious pizza buffet. 
There was just one thing left to do before we could go and relax: Training! That went very well, eventhough the younger group was a bit disappointed about not being allowed to play their favourite horseback game in the huge riding hall. Well, that has to wait.
What would a great trip like that be without getting ice-cream? We went 4 to buy ice-cream for everybody and I think there wasn't very much left, when everybody was finished.
The highlight of the night happened at 3.30, when we could hear a loud ripping noise followed by silence and then an even louder noise and the sound of a deflating air mattress. Bensis's mattress simply couldn't bear it any longer emoticon
After breakfast most of the kids went to the swimmingpool, while the grown-ups bought the last props. Soon it was time to get the horses ready and decide which riders would go to the opening ceremony. Dagný Anna, Thelma Dögg, Hrund, Katrín, Elín and Hjördís were the chosen ones and did their job very well. 
Our younger group was number 6 in the program and it was hard to keep them calm as they were really excited to perform. Sigrún, Hjördís, Katrín, Garpur, Berta and Kristján did so well and we are all really proud of them. 
During the break in the program the older group went to get themselves ready and the younger ones enjoyed some sweets. The older group was number 10 and they performed very well too. 
Following the show the kids were invited to get hamburgers, fries and softdrinks. 
I think we had very good and funny 2 days together! Takk fyrir mig!
