A young rider gallps up on a pony.
Excited?
You bet.

Hey! Have You heard?

No. What's going on? And who is your friend?

Oh. Him? I don't know, he just follows me around.
Anyway - the news is that the Equinics are coming. The Equinics are coming!!

Already? We better get going or we will miss the opening ceremony and the Lighting Of The Torch.

Look. Cheereleaders lining the entrance to the track.






Oh no. security. The one in the middle looks real tough!

No problem. We will just show our Equinics 2006 entry ticket and away we go.

OK. We got in. Wow. Look at all the people. Are they adults?

Nope. My Grammie says that kids play this game. Some of them sure are big kids, though.
