An interesting contrast between the great leader and the skate boarder.

A very imposing statue of Alexander The Great and his amazing horse Bucephalus!

I'm impressed that you know the name of his horse. He had a great love for his horse and a very close relationship, but he din't like his mother , once he said , she asks too much for stay 9 months on her belly , when she did ask something from him to do .

Ah! but I love horses, Kostas - and I think Alexander got his priorities right after the things his mother Olympias did, she sounds like a very nasty woman.
