Trainingstage im IENA

Wir waren für 3Tage im Reitsportzentrum IENA in Avenches, dafür top Lage. Ist in 5min Autofahrt erreichbar. Frühstück gab es auf Wunsch bereits ab 7.00Uhr.
Etwas knapp mit Parkplätzen.

En fait je n'ai passé qu'une nuit car je me suis retrouvée avec 5 hommes ! Et ho quelle surprise car je ne pensais pas cette éventualité.
J'ai bien profité des ronflements 😉
