If you’re a horse person, or perhaps someone who fantasizes about horses all the time, this blog by Equitours is fun to read.  The links along side the blog entries are chock full of information about travel destinations, activities, and the philosophy of the owner and founder of Equitours.  He points out that many people are afraid to travel because they perceive it as dangerous, yet our own country has the highest murder rate, outside of an active war zone.  Statistically we’re much safer abroad than we are at home.
