So one weekend we decided to go horseback riding in Tuscany! Another fantastic decision! Unfortunately, I did not get any pictures of me actually riding the horse because we were riding our horses all in a line and it was snowy and icy. Even though it was freezing outside and a little scary at times because the horses would slide on the icy roads, we still had a blast! The name of my horse was “Big Boy,” which made me laugh. Let’s just say that “big” is an understatement. This was the biggest horse I have ever seen in my life. He was HUGE!!! I had to use a ladder to climb up to sit on the saddle! After we went horseback riding, we went to this old castle where they fed us our authentic Tuscan lunch inside a little restaurant. It was delicious! They first brought us bread, olive oil and balsalmic vinegar and parmesan cheese! Then they came and brought us bruschetta and crustini. They also brought some weird crustinis with ground up duck liver on it, and another one had truffles on it. I am not very fond of eating liver, but I had to try it! The fresh bruschetta was soo good! After that they brought us some different kinds of dried meats like salami, and prosciutto accompanied with a bunch of freshly made cheeses. Then they brought us two different kinds of pastas! After our HUGE lunch, we went to explore around the ancient castle and also to do our wine tasting. We tasted 3 different types of wine. I ended up buying the white wine because it was pretty good! After the wine tasting, our tour guide drove us back to Florence and we went home. It was a great day and was full of a lot of memories! I really want to go horseback riding again but when it is warmer outside!
