Life in the fast lane...

This is the tile of this post because I am currently without a licence for a month for driving too fast! Funny eh, who would of thought I move to a country where there are roads without speed limits and that's when my heavy right foot gets me trouble! But on June 25th my time will be served and then I can drive again, and I can also continue my class one licence so that I can drive a transport truck (for the big horse trucks here). But the wonderful news is that my brother Loisl and my wonderful boyfriend Kenny are here visiting for a month, so I am not completely stranded. That has most certainly been the highlight for this past month is having Kenny here. 

Here is a picture of Loisl, Kenny and I cheering on the German soccer team at the last game before the world championships! 

This last month has been fun of many exciting visits. At the end of May I drove down to Wiesbaden to cheer on the Canadians and had the chance to catch up with Leslie Reid, which was really nice. I also had a great visit with Jamie Welling and Anna Kuper.  Below is a picture of all of us sitting on the lawn watching all the Grand Prix riders warm up. Starting from the left is, Leslie Reid, Wendy Christoff, me, Jamie Welling, Anna Kuper, my brother Loisl Fortmuller, and my cousin Alex Fortmuller.

Wiesbaden is such a beautiful show, the castle is majestic and the Canadian riders did such a great job is was truly inspirational. 

Back at home training and showing with the fabulous four is also going well. Just yesterday Leonie did a teaching session for "dressageclinic.com" and I ride Orion and Blitz for two of her lessons. I'll keep you up to date when the video's are posted on the web page. 

Also in other exciting news this weekend is Orion's and I's debut, we will be showing in the Summer Classics Isernhagen in the Int. II- I will make sure to put up a speedy blog to let everyone know how it went. All extra luck wishes are greatly appreciated cause I'm a little but nervous.   

And as a final note: check out the fun trick Anited is learning how to throw a stick for Lecoya :-) If you look really closely in the picture you can see the stick in Anited's mouth.
