Buffadil racing

Bus ride to small village. Pride and place was Buffalo racing. There will be some who don't approve but it is spectacular. You have to get to far end ASAP and knock down the wooden stick (effigy?).

Preceded by the dreaded cultural dance, though this one was better than most. Included small boys fighting and a wedding ceremony. Maybe they have Irish connections.

Small village where everyone seemed genuinely delighted to see us. Kids in brilliant school uniform, much better than UK (chinos and beach shirt). Strange ginger soup, weaving, lots of kids and chickens and a few old houses.
Back to ship for lunch and relocation.Leer más
