Horses and Cows and Sea Lions: Oh My!

Yesterday we went up to Hacienda Tranquila to help with a therapeutic riding program they run for the local disabled kids there.  We led the horse up and down the road between the hacienda and the school in La Soledad while trying not to let the kid fall off.  It was just like working at Helping Horses, except for the Spanish.  Then, we ended up learning how to milk a cow and herd cattle.  It was interesting.  We definitely were not very good at it.  It was a lot of fun, though, and a pleasant surprise. 
Tomorrow, we're diving at Kicker Rock and doing a shark census, along with working on this project about sea turtles that I don't know if we'll ever finish.  Speaking of which...
