The road to the World Singles Carriage Driving Championships 2010

Pratoni – Day Three

July 27th, 2010 · 4 Comments · Uncategorized

This morning we headed out to the venue after our al fresco breakfast overlooking the countryside.    Michelle and Elizabeth were scheduled to drive in the practise dressage arena from 9.00 til 9.30.   Both girls warmed up their horses and then went into the arena for 15 minutes each.

The first of our Aussie support crew arrived today.  There were many tears and hugs as Diana, Glen, Wendy and Joy were welcomed into the camp.

Shortly after that Ilma and Ron Cunnew arrived and then Rhonda Thomas and her son Bryn.   

We cleaned some harness, cleaned some lamps, got the ID numbers for the horses and team members.   Dot had to attend an official Chef’s meeting and give out more information to the team.   Plans were made for the following day and then off to dinner and off to bed.
