Tomorrow morning I set off on my next horsey adventure - Uruguay! For 9 days we will be trotting and cantering through the gorgeous scenery. The Hidden Trails expedition will take us through as "We ride from the traditional cattle breeding region of the country to the Coast of "Rocha" where we will cross the "Bañados del Este" Biosphere Reserve (UNESCO recognized), filled with an enormously diverse bird population... and other wildlife like the endangered capybara, sea turtle, and the franca whale." We will also "Enjoy the thrill of fast paced riding along the firm, sandy beaches pf Uruguay and across the vast grasslands on well trained and responsive riding horses. Enjoy breaks for traditional barbecue lunches and picnics, then ride on each day, over sand dunes, through palm groves, beside inland lakes teeming with wild waterfowl and on to the old Portuguese fort or your beach side hotels to admire stunning sunsets. Dolphins feeding in the beautiful bays, black-necked swans gliding across the lagoons, chattering parrots flying over, capybaras wading in the reeds - these are all things you can expect to find on a typical week in this paradise. Incredibly friendly locals and skilled gauchos may accompany us and talk of their unique lives and their traditions." Sounds like a blast!

VIRGO SIDE NOTE:
I think maybe someone is a little OCD with their luggage? Everything is neatly organized in separate bags and compartments. I had to cut her off with the label maker ;) Haha just kidding, but I know my luggage has never been this organized!
