By the side of the road, a group of horses wonder, peacefully. I got off the car to take a picture. My eldest daughter loves horses and this might be an opportunity that won't be repeated anytime soon. Just as I am getting to the fence, one horse stares at me. I look away. Never stare at animals, some say. The horse slowly approaches. Curious as I am I get as closely as I possibly can. For 5 minutes or so I talk to the horse. He seems to listen. He looks at me as if he understands every single word. I pet him on his nose and neck. He smells my and try to eat my T-Shirt. I shoot as many photos as I can. Another horse approaches.

I look back on more time. The horse lifts his right leg and tries to open the gate...
