Here we were the guests of Juan Manuel Barreiro and his charming wife Cecilia.

We all enjoyed a welcome reception and spectacular dinner last night in the Sofitel Hotel last night and everyon had the chance to get acquainted. Great start.

This morning we left BA for a two hour drive south of the city to an estancia near Lobos.

We saw the newly imported Friesian horses (and a few babies!), the spectacular carriage collection, plus harness and appointments galore.
Together we enjoyed an Argentine barbecue and lots of Malbec wine.

Following coffee in the house and some goodbyes, we drove 1 1/2 hours to General Belgrano to visit the commercial carriage collection of Dr. Guillermo Gibelli, who was joined by his dear wife Christina.
