Horsing around in Turkmenistan.

A visit to a private horse farm to see some Akhal-Teke horses. Said to be one of the most prized breeds in the world. Grown by the Turkmens since ancient times.

I think Mr.Ed here ( those of a certain era, will know, otherwise there is always google search) is the perfect smilie face.

Renowned for their speed, agility and intelligence and ability to thrive in severe conditions. They excel in horsey sports.

An opportunity to mount one of these beasts (behave at the back puhlease) and trot around for $25 an hour was an option

Though seeing this loon in action I continue to have never been on horseback ever, and long may it continue
