This morning we rose early in order to arrive at the Lippizanar Stud Farm on time for a dressage performance by the magnificent white stallions, attended by the Princess of Jordan. Prior to the performance, we toured the stables and a small museum of antique wagons.
Lippizanis are born brown, black or red. They lose their pigment over time and transform into white horses.
Our next stop was a vineyard and a tourist winery in the countryside near Portoroz. The vineyard's claim-to-fame is its Teran wine, which can only be produced in the local area due to the unique environmental conditions. After the tour, we headed to port where we sailed out to the rainy sea.
Cruising the Slovenian coastline in style.
See you next year in Texas!
