Or maybe I should start at the very beginning...
Last autumn we went with the local riding club to the annual ride, called Fákagleði, where we go for a long ride, have games afterwards and grill alltogether. At that certain ride we went up to lake Botnsvatn above Húsavík. Ingólfur rode Amor and I went on List. I soon discovered that she really liked to vade out into the lake as far as I would allow it. 
So I thought, what, if I'd show her the sea? We already took a walk down there a few years ago and she wasn't that keen on walking into it, but why not give it a try? A word and a blow, we went for a beach ride and then walked straight into the waves, no hesitating. In fact I had to make List walk parallel to the beach so she wouldn't just walk further and further and swimm in the end. We went out and in again, having a lot of fun! Well, who needs and aquatrainer if you have the best available just around the corner?
We'll definitely do this again.
Afterwards Ingólfur and I went on Magnús and Sigtýr for a ride, which was just gorgeous, no need to say more. It's a privilege to have horses like that and be able to enjoy a great ride.
