We, and crowds of other people, spent lots of time during the Royal Windsor Horse Show exploring and shopping in the many, many booths and tents in the trade fair.
I enjoyed seeing (and was able to introduce A.J. to) some friends from Spain, when we discovered the Dorantes Saddlery booth. During last year’s CAA trip to Spain, the group had visited with the folks at Dorantes, and with their compatriots at Alba Carriages. At Windsor, we talked about England, Spain, food, and, of course, the beautiful items on display in their trade-fair booth.
