Horse luring with my carrot jacket



The money shot.

Ben is not a carrot



This video is soo discovery channel. Watch as the horse approaches Ben curiously. Due to high elevation and lack of sleep, we have decided to create our own language called Beninise. Word of the day = "Uncertant" (the art of being uncertain in nature).

Utterly delicious



These little pups will do whatever it takes for a shot of the good stuff.

Onion Soup



If you want to learn something about onions, watch this video! WARNING: may lead to cooking.

Strawberry joint



In a small town, that survives off of exporting onions, they still manage to have a strawberry-themed restaurant. The cash register was backdropped by a 1980's poster of Strawberry Shortcake. Take note of the Spanish worship music playing in the background. Classic moment.

we got jipped



okay, so the place is growing on us.

Los Quetzales - love the cross stitch



Always stock up on hotel shampoos -- never know when you're gonna need them.

Little girl



So adorable, we had to film her!

Artist at work in Bambito



These are the little things that make my heart smile.

Hike Complete



Back at base camp.

Two stallions



Nature has blessed me. In the middle of nowhere, I came across two stallions during my hike. (I kept the orange one!)

mountain summit



Our 45 minute hike led us along a desolate road, through lush forest, past horses grazing in the hillside, eventually ending at this little cabin paradise.

Dutch Horses



Is this not a horse lover's calendar shot? Take note of Marlise talking to herself in the background. It must be the altitude.
