another new friend - or: it's all about who's standing next to you

Today my best friend Nikola came to the barn with me to meet Bella. We met years ago through the horse, but sadly our lives have taken us to different parts of Germany and we aren't able to keep our horses at the same barn anymore. While Bella next to me looks small to regular sized, next to her Bella looks so tall!

Unfortunately Bella's still terribly sucked up from all the stress. I wish she would settle in faster, but right now she's still very up and not her usual relaxed self. I also wish I could put hay out on the field for her, but our barn owner won't let me. So I have to do with bringing her in during the day and feeding her another extra special meal.
