Horse races

This one is for Steve and Leslie.
Well isn't it rough when your employer sends out an email saying- "anyone who wants tickets to this weeks horse races please pick them up at..."
Don't mind if we do- having never been to an actual horse race- just rodeos for us- this was yet another fun new activity- and it didn't hurt that they had pony rides and free cotton candy as well. Gambling is not allowed over here but they did have a sort of lottery- you filled out the number of the horse and put it into a corresponding box- all the correct guesses got put in a tumbler and a winner was pulled. I was just picking numbers I liked (and not winning) so to pass along the tip to all of you for the next time you are in Qatar- (pick the horse that is owned by someone named Al Thani- he is the Sheik of the country and consequently has the fastest horses- I wish I'd known that sooner)
