While we were at Mr. Ordas’s farm last week, watching the horses in the arena, Sue Murray used her camera’s video feature to film the horses and carriages. This link will take you to six minutes’ worth of Andalusian horses: a four-in-hand team and a five-in-hand. If you have sound on your computer, you can hear the guitar music in the background and the bells on the harness.

And here are links to three videos that Sue shot at the feria:

What a nice job of video taping the parade.
On the faces of the horses/mules were those flowers? Were they wearing Blinders or did the flowers cover up their rear vision enough?

Those are pom-poms on the horses’ bridles. They´re regular driving bridles, with blinkers, and with pom-poms attached at every available location. The pom-poms themselves appear to be made out of wool. As soon as I can, I’ll post a close-up photo of one of the bridles.
