On Friday John Riley came to Pentrefelin to pick me up and meet with other Australians to do some stud visits. First though we toured around Pentrefelin so John could see the horses, it was also a great opportunity for me to get some photos of Claires beautiful ponies. She has some lovely horses including Gwryfach Gideon a lovely C Stallion, Pentrefelin Darcy Bussle a C mare, Pentrefelin Bodecia, Pentrefelin Pearl, Navestock Seren, and Pentrefelin Bonneddiges. John and I then left to meet with the Australians.
We met with Tara and Elizabeth D'Hont and as the others were going to be a little while we decided to do a bit of sightseeing in Blaenavon. We eventually found the big pit after much frustration and Tara, Elizabeth and I decided to take a tour down it. Our travel guide was very funny and it was a great experience, but unfortunately photographs were not alowed down it. It was a amazing place and also very cold and eerie.
We then met up with the rest of the Australians and we went to Blaidd stud where we were met by Len and Sue Palmer. Sue brought out an amazing amount of food which was delicious and much too much for eight of us. They were very friendly and showed us their lovely ponies even though it was raining. They showed us their lovely stallion Bookham Lodge Peter Pan who everyone was very impressed with.
We then went on to Hywi Stud where we were met by Roger and Rhian Davies and the rest of the family. They showed us their ponies who we were all very impressed with including the beautiful stallion Pentrepiod Welsh Flyer, and the mares Hywi Showgirl and Hywi Rhian as well as all the other lovely ponies that we saw. Unfortunalely the photos are not very good as my camera didnt want to focus because of the dust in the indoor school.
I would like to thank all for showing us their beautiful horses.
