The weather was beautiful but cold yesterday, it takes some time to get used to the cold though. The mares were brought home for grooming, they now look very good and are now out on the field.

I am proud of being nominated as the sport rider of the year in Iceland this year
The flowers I received when I was chosen as The sport rider and The rider of the year in our club Sleipnir 2019, last weekend. The red rose was for the Icelandic Championship title in 5 gait.

This young stallion is 3 years old, Dam is Álfhildur frá Syðri-Gegnishólum and sire is Meginn frá Ketilsstöðum. There he is having look at grandma Álfadís frá Selfossi and mother Álfhildur, it would be acceptable for us if he would try to be like them.

This was a good move, to get all the shoes in order, normally they lie in buckets and boxes on the floor making it difficult to reuse them.

Nice to be able to picture these two mares together, Grýla frá Stangarholti and her grand daughter Álfatrú frá Syðri-Gegnishólum. Álfatrú is a daughter of Álfadís frá Selfossi and Sveinn-Hervar frá Þúfu í Landeyjum. Grýla is 29 years old and Álfatrú is 2 years old and a funny mix of her grandmother and mother in confirmation and colour. She has a good and strong back and her temperament is curious and friendly. My friend Ellen was making a lot of funny sound and positions to make them pose, but mostly they looked surprised

Five beautiful black yearlings in the mountain in Ketilsstaðir, all mares, would have been good to bring the microchip reader. They all have excellent breeding lines, it's Álfadís and Stáli frá Kjarri, Álfhildur and Spaði frá Stuðlum, Aðaldís and Sveinn-Hervar frá Þúfu í Landeyjum, Vænting and Sveinn-Hervar frá Þúfu í Landeyjum and Álfastjarna and Aðall frá Nýjabæ.

Last Monday we were visited by all the ministers of agriculture in the Nordic countries and their employees. We told them about our work, breeding, raising, training, presending the Icelandic horse and the effect that we believe that the Icelandic horse has on connections and cooperation within the nordic countries as in the world as well. Jelena Ohm presented the work of Horses of Iceland and we showed some horses in training to this group of interested and charming people.

We are home again from the World Championships in Berlin, I have been using some time to digest the experience. This was a great time with solidarity and friendship, the atmosphere around and in our team was outstanding. I'm proud and honored to be a part of the Icelandic team.
I chose to bring my dearest horse, Álfarinn and was able to create a "magic moment " with him in the preliminaries. That, in the end, was most important for me, we were able to show our capacity. 
In the finals, when I think back, it wasn't really right from the beginning. Why, I can only speculate. In the end, what comes back to me again and again. Berlin is not a horse friendly place. The change is too big for horses coming straight from Iceland with too short time to adjust and I think it's based on chance which horses are able to handle it and which do not. This is not an excuse only my thoughts.
Sigurbjörn team leader, Sigurður, Anton, Arnar Bjarki, trainers, our Team board, team members, grooms, helpers and Erlendur our farrier, thank you so much you are all geniuses. I'm proud to be a part of the Icelandic team.
