For Andy's work going-away party, we went to Happy Valley race track in Hong Kong, a legendary race course that makes more money in a night (Wednesday nights only) than some race courses in the States make all year!
Here, we pose next to a horse. (Not a real one)

Let's gamble it up! Look at all that cash! ($100HK = $13US)

Andy and Paul discuss their options...in reality, Andy had no idea what was going on and eventually just said "tell me what to do."

The inexplicable between-races Romanian band. Only slightly more logical than the Mexican Mariachi band at Ocean Park.

They're off!!!

This poor old horse brings up the rear...

Yay! Erin celebrates. In 3 races we saw, we bet $300HK and won $370! That's a $10US profit, thank you very much!

A good time had by all and another Hong Kong experience for the books!
Only one more week of work, then off to New Zealand...
Love,
A&E

In the first picture;I could tell it wasn't a real horse!
What fun,and great winnings.
Don't see Finn, I assume he was riding one of the horses; jockeys are small, bet he did well...
