I told Paul he was too little, that ponies were for big boys, that he needed to wait until he turned 4. Paul insisted he wanted to try it too: "娃娃也要." I was dubious, but when we got to the mounting block, sure enough he climbed onto the smallest pony. The boys loved the 30-minute trail ride. We will be back!

I got a lot of pictures of horses' butts. Paul and I were the slow pokes at the end of the line.

We saw a deer walk by!
