El Caballo

Saturday outing at El Caballo http://www.elcaballo.com.au/. Spanish dancing horses, bull fighters, and other horsey stuff. It's about an hour from the city, set in the hills where the sea breeze doesn't quite reach. Needless to say it was hot.

C&K at the entrance to the resort.


And again in the foyer.


Spanish bull fighting is initially carried out using horses and a long, sharp stick to draw the bull from the group and cause the first loss of blood prior to the bullfighters on foot who finish it off. This guy didn't have a bull but pranced about with a stick while cheesy music played in the background.


Chicks on horses. Choreographed dancing sort of thing.






Hey fool, you're going the wrong way. Actually this guy did some neat tricks and had a real affinity with his horse. He did some high speed running in this position. Note - no saddle!


There was also a small petting zoo and some toddler's rides.
