And since we will be taking our little one with us, we also take our “cabin”, our caravan for our little family. Buying it was really a good idea. After all, it´s Marlyse´s second home.

When I was preparing the “cabin” today, I still always thought about last weekend. We had taken 20 horses and our entire team to a rural tournament and it was great. Gert-Jan won the M event with a home-bred horse. Chameur is the son of Cristallo; his mother is Izabalia, and Chameur is only six years old. Wow – it is always so exciting when home-bred horses are fielded, too.

Our horse trainer, Wesley, was also quite successful. In one event, he ended up third and fourth with hour horses; in a Z event he ranked second on the seven-year-old For Pleasure daughter Que je suis Belle. And then there was the ZZ event, the highlight of the tournament, and we had plenty of reasons to celebrate: Gert-Jan won with Umeunig and Wesley came in second on Bas. Fourth was Gert-Jan again on Qudo and eighth was, ... guess who?..., Gert-Jan, now on Sacramento. That was superb, really superb.
