騎馬小屋的隔壁風景 Next to the lodge, it was a sunny day (hurray)

05/08/12

It's august, we got through the busiest period, so we have more time to do some tourists thing. After some routine food shopping in Walmart (I bought way too much that I could barely take anything), we went horse back riding~~~~~~~

This was my first time riding a horse without someone looking after me, and the horse was gigantic, we need to get on the second floor and kind of 'land' on the horse from its top, rather than just use the usual way to hop on it, or maybe we were too short, haha.

Riding a horse is not terribly hard, but it gets distracted a lot, like eating the grass, or wandering around, we really needed to control them a bit.

I couldn't remember how long did we take to finish the whole activity, but I think it was at least 2 -3 hours. We literally climbed the hills, got really high place on the mountain, and looked down the whole forest, it was amazing. The weather was nice as usual, bits of sunshine, we took tons of pictures. It was definitely one of the most amazing times I have in my life.

八月是我們比較能去旅遊的時間，因為七月的觀光人潮很多，每天的工作量很高，所以八月一到我們就開心得要命，早上衝去超市買食物補貨，回家狼吞虎嚥一番我們就蹦跳的出發去騎馬~~~~

這是我第一次沒人看著我騎馬(想必大家都有小時候在廟口騎小馬的經驗吧)，而且那個馬不知道在大隻什麼，我們要爬到小木屋的二樓，然後從二樓走道馬背上，不是那種帥氣的一腳跨上馬兒，真心覺得是因為馬場主人看到我們矮成這樣想說我們如果要一腳跨上馬兒可能腳筋會炸裂吧

其實騎馬不是說非常的困難，基本上前進就是夾牠肚子(他們皮厚有時候無感，不要猶豫地用力夾吧)，夾的時候一邊說woo, 然後停止的時候就往後拉一下，左右邊就用韁繩引導之~

馬兒有時候挺自我的，他們會放空發呆看風景，隨意棒賽，有時候會忍不住低頭吃草，為了避免脫隊只好硬拉起來。

我不太記得我們那個時候到底騎了多久，但是我記得應該有兩三個小時，我們認真地翻山越嶺騰雲駕霧，又溯溪又攀岩的，一路上都是山路的往上，最後從山頂邊邊俯瞰整個黃石公園，超美，無話可說，超美。

我們與等待的馬兒 They are the horses we were riding.

一行人馬爬山去 Our group was kinda big, make sure we follow all the way, you don't want to get lost here.

我的背影與馬兒 Me and my horse!

I felt pure pain when I hopped of from the horse. MY BUM WAS ACHING SO MUCH. And it lasted for 3 days. It was great after all. 

I also went white water rafting but somehow I only have one group picture, so I guess I will just skip it.

Thanks for your reading~ see you soon x

一下馬我的屁股感受到一陣強烈的痠痛，而且持續痛了三天，媽呀，騎馬真是很累的運動啊
有機會一定要去騎馬~
我們後來還有去泛舟，也很好玩但是不知道為什麼一張照片都沒有啊 好像只有一張團體照，所以泛舟就草草帶過啦~
