Equestrian champs

The South African Junior Equestrian Championships have been taking place at the Port Elizabeth Riding Club over the last week or so.  I've seen the sport on television, but it was the first time that I actually sat next to the ring (see how little I know of it, cause I'm sure the arena isn't called a ring) and saw the horses jump in real life.

  2. I was showjumping at that age and into early adult hood. Ring or arena, makes no difference or not where I came from! Great photo and many memories for me. Diane
