Horse Riding
I had just about recovered from the cycling by this morning although felt no need to ever ride a bike again. Today we had the optional horse riding, the majority of the group chose to do it and we were going to be doing a 4-4.5 hour ride on Andalusian/Arabs.

Amazingly our luggage also made it to Jerez on the correct flight and we got picked up ...
