Recovering...

Yesterday we did head to the Spanish Riding School where the Lipizzan Stallions perform, but I must admit that the link I posted was way more impressive than what we got to see.  Actually, the REAL deal stallions are on vacation...no, I 'm not joking, so we got to see some of the trainees...the up and comings!  Don't get me wrong, it was still impressive (and less expensive) and fun to watch these beautiful horses prance around and interact with one another. 
Here is Abby dreaming big dreams I am sure, as she watches the show.

Here are some of the Mamas with their 2 and 3 month old babies.  I was surprised that they start out brown and then eventually turn white.

Our 4th evening was spent with our friends, the Baileys and we had our share of hamburgers, hot dogs, corn on the cob, baked beans, watermelon and apple pie.  We even ate some s'mores just for good measure!  (Hence the title, recovering...from all we ate!)

We all were a bit surprised when dusk occurred and there were 3 different sets of fireworks in the city that we could see from our terrace!  
It was great fun celebrating the 4th with so much to be thankful for...

freedom, family, food and the fellowship of new friends!
