Horse farm in Benghazi

I have always loved horses. I hope someday at our farm we might get to actually own one. A rule my Dad once said always sticks in my mind though "Never own something that eats while you sleep". I think that same rule could have applied to Robie and I as teenagers though!

Our good friends took us to this amazing horse facility just outside Benghazi. It had green grass, dogs, lots of horses and camels too. The kids and I had a great time wandering from barn to barn checking out all the new babies with their mamas and watching the baby move inside the pregnant camel's belly. So neat!

The camels. The one closest to us is the one with the baby in her belly.

Getting to know the horse they were going to ride.






Before I could stop her she had her socks and shoes off and loved the grass on her toes!

I think he is having a good time?
