Birdwood downs











On the long weekend Dad and I went to a station called Birdwood Downs to go horse riding. I first rode a horse called Mighty Mouse then I rode a horse called Pajho (the bay one at the top) for the next two days. Dad rode a VERY steady horse called Nenia. We went on heaps of trail rides and also rode on the original Gibb River track which hasn't been used for 60 years. It was very hot and wet and we did alot of sweating but it was still nice eating marshmallows by the camp fire. We were the only people there in the campsite and we were right next to the horse paddock so it was very nice getting woken up by the whinnying of horses and feeding them your carrots at dinner time.

The people were very nice and they let me help feed, brush, tack up and of course ride their horses.
