Yesterday I was at the second "Straô" of the season, winter beach ride for draft horses on the island of Schouwen-Duiveland in Zeeland province. Cold but happy faces everywhere and some beautifully adorned horses with colourful wreaths & pompoms. More photos and a few short videos: https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjC2zLG

Info in Dutch: https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straô or on a dedicated website that I visited a couple of days ago but is now offline, unfortunately: http://www.straoburghhaamstede.nl Hopefully it will be back. (There are other websites but they are all very touristy & clickbaity.) #straô #schouwen #zeeland

Last week the first one was in Renesse, yesterday it was in Burgh-Haamstede, coming Saturdays they will be in Noordwelle, Ellemeet, Scharendijke, Serooskerke. Fun to check out if you're in the neighbourhood. #straô #schouwen #zeeland

Yesterday Sat 18 Feb was the day of the "Straô" in #BurghHaamstede in the Dutch coastal province of #Zeeland. It's an early season beach ride with (work) horses, often decorated with wreaths and colourful pompoms. This was the 2nd one, 4 more to go in other villages.
