A Journey to Santiago de Compostelle |
|
Jules Phillips and Lucinda Munchhausen have just set off on a journey across France and Northern Spain to Santiago de Compostella.
July 2008: Sadly, Jules and Lucinda have been forced to cancel their journey due to emergencies and illness - one horse went lame and another was bitten by a snake. As Lucinda wrote to The Guild:
"I think the hardest day for me was when Lotus was
bitten by the snake: it was something I knew could happen but didn't prepare
myself for the helpless feeling whilst waiting for the vet that never turned
up, I could have kissed the French vet that came to our aid - I have never
been so happy to see someone.
I was very disappointed to not be able to continue but
as you have probably learnt in our blogs for me my horses are very important
more important than a destination and as Odi was lame the decision was made
for us. I am so proud of the horses - not once did they object to any
situation, they gave their all and were far more courageous than us."
