Lippizaner Horses - GREAT show!

Today we went to see the Lippizaner Horses up North Jersey. I was like a kid in candyland. What seems like centuries ago...because it has been...I was an Equestrienne. And I was lucky enough to have seen the Lippizaner in the "Spanische Hofreitschule" in Vienna back in the 80s.

Here are LOADS of pictures. Hope you all enjoy.











Of course there was no stopping me when I realized I could get THIS close to them

Re: Lippizaner Horses - GREAT show!

I saw a show in Philly almost 10 years ago with my mom, aunt, and cousin. It was one of those shows that was traveling the US, I'm pretty sure they were the ones out of Vienna. Such an amazing show.

Re: Lippizaner Horses - GREAT show!

I've always loved them!! I keep saying that someday, when I have a barn, I'll have a Lippizaner, a Thoroughbred, a Dutch Warmblood and a Morgan (my 4 favorite breeds).

Congrats on getting to see them in person! It's a wonderful memory!
