First try

I did it yesterday . First I fastened SSSól on the belt of Baga but the rope was too long so that I needed to make it shorter for two times. SSSól is following fine but she is a little bit slow so she managed two times to cross the side (suddenly she was on the left side and not like wanted on the right side). But with a shorter rope it must work fine. That's why Iris should buy me a lead rope in Iceland. I have never seen this before in Germany.
Of course I tried immediately what SSSól is doing if I am riding on Baga and it worked rather fine. Now I know that I have to work alone with SSSól that she knows my signals. Always if I clicked with my tongue, Baga felt in brokk and SSSól was still in walk. She is a very unhurried horse and seems to think "Dúmmdídúmm, what a wonderful day....dúmmdídúmm....don't hurry me..."

Great to see that you are working with your girls.And the shorter the rope is between SSSól to Bögu teymingjargjörð the better it would work.Then she can´t go on the wrong side of her.

And it is also better to have a "dúmmý" horse in the start of the training then a crazy horse .I can tell you! My best wishes and I am looking forward to see you next blogg!!!

Ps.Soon I will drive to Draum and bring Sokkudís and Sæludís back home .

Thank you Ransý! Fine that Sokkadís and Sæladís will be in Ásgarði if Íris arrives. Then she can take some videos and pictures for me. I am very excited about your "dream"-foal of Sokkadís . I am going on with my work with the horses and keep you informed about the progress .

Danke Hekla, Stóra-Baga ist ein Traum .
