I’m guessing hundreds maybe even $1,000. He probably isn’t paying for it though, since it was a gift. Out of curiosity, I just got an estimate from fed ex. If the harp is 70 pounds (google estimated 70-90), shipped from Naples to Oakland, is between $500-$900. Actually a bit cheaper than I would have guessed.

Slave To The Network Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 It's kind of a bummer that most likely none of them were actually legit riding the horses on their own. Looks like they were just posing for pictures mostly. Man, I want to see Billie ride a horse for real. Like do some cantering or something. Haha! I guess maybe none of them know how to ride horses. Anyway, this whole thing still makes me so happy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, this whole thing still makes me so happy! It looked to me like they posed for pics but then did go for a ride. I’ve only been horseback riding twice but both times myself and those I went with had guides with the horses. The average person doesn’t know what the heck they’re doing on a horse so I think that’s normal? He mentioned that hey went riding more than once during the citizenship thing so I’d guess they did.

Oh, yeah I guess that is normal to have a guide when you're inexperienced on a horse? I'm just so used to riding horses on my own I don't really know. Ha ^^And OMG that video!

To be fair he can say thank you and once he said something that could be translated as God damn it or fucking God to a cheering crowd! So let's give him credit for that, he's like one step away from fluency Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
