Horse riding holidays as the Indians of America Activities, traditions, Pisa

To learn how to ride as the Indians of America, there is no need to go far, thanks to a discovery by Tuscan friends Outdoorblog, Schwarzer Adler, which retrieves thoroughbred horses otherwise destined for slaughter. The horses are rieducati by David Bassi, one of the founders, according to the techniques of the Indians of America, learned at a young age from a native American, reaching to be installed without bite, reins, cavezza and saddle.

Anyone wishing to learn the mount of India has many options at the Centre: from “simple” learn to go on horseback without bite, with cavezza and longhina up to a “total”, where he teaches on their way to flock to recover its horse and mounted with the help of only one string. The association also organizes trips on horseback, strictly without bite and cost.

The Tower of Pisa does not move more! Art ,News ,Pisa

The tower of Pisa does not move more, and we can not be sure that will make it for the next 300 years! And ‘This is the announcement of Professor Michele Jamiolkowski, a famous psychotherapist who, after lengthy meetings and working sessions, managed to convince the Tower of his state of immovable property and therefore desist from its intention to go around the world (in fact Michael is a professor emeritus of the Politecnico di Torino).

Not only la Torre was convinced not to move more, but also to return to the position that the giovincella held in the 1,700, when its tilt (the overhang) was only 3 meters and 99 centimeters, compared to 4 meters and 47 centimeters that the birichina had reached in 1993.

All this work of recovery and restoration has brought with it a fruit that will make the joy of all visitors, between three months when you can access from the small port of entry, will look again at the top can see all seven arcades and the sky. I would add that even if it were evening, certainly we return in mind the verses of the Supreme:

Salimmo up, the first and second I,
both ch’i ‘de saw things beautiful

leading ‘l ciel, for a pertugio round.

So uscimmo a riveder the stars.
