On Sunday, Tracy and Marta took Gabi and Rania to visit some special citizens of Chevy Chase, Maryland - the horses at Meadowbrook Stables. The horses were out of the stables, and made fast friends with the girls, following them around the paddocks and angling for a pat, or some grass (which Gabi considerately pulled and fed them until a stable worker put an end to that).
(Specifically, Gabi kept pulling more and more grass up for all of the horses in the whole pen. She was running around the pen feeding them until the stable worker yelled at her, saying "Don't feed the horses girls" (rania too). Then a minute later Gabi was feeding them again, and she yelled "I said, don't feed them!' Gabi: "Oh, I forgot." ( yeah right). So the stable worker said "Well, don't forget." It was pretty funny. The stable worker later told us that it makes the horses more aggressive, that's why you can't feed them. But it was fun while it lasted! Marta had gone to get the car, so this is an inserted detail by Tracy.) Fun times.
