On a cheap-airfare-fueled-whim, I decided to head over to Berlin and check out Folsom Europe (with pony gear in tow). I got to hang out and walk the fair with three awesome ponies and a very cool puppy.
Sadly, I wasn't able to make it to Folsom East (New York) this year so I'm 2 out of 3 for 2016 (photos from SF Folsom to come soon), but in 2017 I'm hoping to hit the trifecta of Folsoms (New York, Berlin, and my home, San Francisco).
Anyway, I wanted to share a few photos from my short trip to Folsom Berlin - be warned though, all the photos I took (all except the first one with me in it), I took wearing my mask (it must have been an interesting sight: a tacked up pony with a camera).

I sneaked a pony selfie on the flight to Germany.

I've seen a few of these awesomely attached harnesses before at Folsom San Francisco in 2012 and 2013, and I love them! I mean, come on, leather bondage harnesses and horse bits, what's not to love?
Perhaps the second best use of a snaffle!
This pup was so f***ing cute:
Cute pup. So, cute.
I love the lockable harness! And the mask, so cool:
Always glad to see a lockable harness being utilized. The personalized collar is a great idea.
Cool kitty:
Lovely kitty mask.
A nice shiny pony butt:
Nighty's pony butt :)
A latex puppy:

I'm a sucker for harnesses with red or white lining...so hot:

Puppy with a toy:
All I can say about this is: awesome
Puppy with yellow mask:
Such a cute pose.
Did I mention I liked white lining on leather gear:
I want mitts like these for ponies!
Amazing harness and ropework:
Red harness lining and red rope, freaking amazing!
Pig:
Yay for livestock!
Cool mask:
Love the mask.
Latex:
Okay, not an animal, but still, this costume is just great.
Folsom Berlin was so much fun. I even found out (though I guess I should have known this) that some of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence take donations at both Folsom SF and Folsom Berlin. It was pretty cool to meet some of them in Berlin and find out that I would see them again two weeks later back home at Folsom San Francisco.
