Good Morning Zuiders and welcome to the 12 day countdown =cheerleader =cheerleader =cheerleader
Erin, we did horsey stuff on RCCL so I only know from that. You can bid on one of six horses to become an owner of the horse you win the bid on. We won our horse with a bid in the vicinity of $400. After we got our wood and cardboard horse with a jockey on him, like a poster, we took her and decorated her so that we could compete in the best dressed horse contest. We used a hula skirt for her tial etc. We took her all over the ship so that we could elicit votes of owner's race day. The race is on the pool deck. They have a big floor cloth marked off with six lanes across and six boxes down (or close to that) They rolled 2 dice in a bingo cage. The number on the die represented a horse., so 2 horses got to move each time. They moved one box per roll. If 2 of the same number came up, the lucky horse got to move 2 spaces. First to the end wins the race :cheers Owner takes the owners pot. You also bet on the horses in all the races as you like. We had about 6 races first. That's just like a real race, you win or lose from the bet money. :cheers Now, did I really confuse =headscratch you

We got a confirm on our dinner time. No room yet, but we do eat.: 6:15 Lower.

Suitcases are out and I am down to the crunch. Trying to figure clothes .

Elaine, the rollcall looks good.

Till we sail Barb :wave
