As a little girl, I always wanted a pony for Christmas. Santa never brought me a pony. So in my late 40s, I started taking horseback riding lessons. When I turned 50, I got my first horse, an Icelandic named Blessi (Veigar frá Búðardal). Little did I know how much fun life with an Icelandic was going to be. Blessi has a unique perspective on life. I hope you enjoy reading about it as much as I enjoy Blessi. And you will probably read about my cats from time to time.

Do Icelandic Horses Like Belly Dancying
Agnieszka & Fabiana perform their Shimmy By Fire dance to a herd of Icelandic horses in Iceland. As the dancers note, the horses don't look too impressed. I wonder if they had performed facing the horses, rather than the camera, if the results would be different.
It is such a shame that the camera tipped over and their heads were not recorded. The dance is brilliant. Here's a link to a video of them dancing at Gunnhuver Hot Springs. The cold does limit costuming choices. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFaEeXyDzoo
