Patagonia Pictures (hiking and horseback riding)

There's been a lot less down time on this vacation than I expected!! Finally, here are some more pictures from last week in Patagonia.

 This is a lake!! It was the day that it was so windy that we ended up changing our hike for fear of kids blowing off the ridge, or getting pelted with the many small rocks that were flying in the over 100mph winds.

 Windy and cold- but still adorable. For the most part the kids have gotten along remarkably well for having spent so much non stop time together :) I've been super impressed with their behavior and adventurous spirits.

 

The boys playing with the wind. 

 

The horse ride was both cool and terrifying. My horse hated water, so she decided to try and decapitate me by going through the woods instead of through this river with the others.

 But, my horse wasn't nearly as bad as Carl's! He kept nipping at Carl's ankle, and wanted to run whenever we reached an open space.








We did get to see lots of great wildlife during our ride, including these herds of sheep, lots of wild horses, and a couple of bulls!

The kids can't wait to go riding again; I'm taking them tomorrow morning. But, Carl says he is done for life!!
