“There is no more sagacious animal than the Icelandic horse. He is stopped by neither snow, nor storm, nor impassable roads, nor rocks, glaciers, or anything. He is courageous, sober, and surefooted. He never makes a false step, never shies. If there is a river or fjord to cross (and we shall meet with many) you will see him plunge in at once, just as if he were amphibious, and gain the opposite bank.”
― Jules Verne, Journey to the Center of the Earth
I've taken this photo here at Lower Saxony. Nearby we have several Icelandic Horse stud farms and visiting them during winter is always a wonderful experience.
Wishing you a lovely and silent time for the last days of the year and a Happy New Year with the hope that you will have many blessings in the year to come”.
Much Love,
isabella
