Horsin' Around at Santa Anita!

We were almost the first ones at the race track!

We explored and found lots of pretty flowers... and fire hydrants.

Danni found a comfy place to rest...

Danni got her face painted!

A pretty painted lady!

I won lots of prizes playing their carnival games!

These ponies didn't go very fast!

We liked watching the 'horsie parade' right before the start of the race!

Watching the horsies get ready to run!

Danni and I have never been to the horse races before!!  We enjoyed all of the fun things there were to see and do at Santa Anita Race Track...  and that was without even placing a bet on the horses!  We got there early and explored a little bit!  I especially liked all of the pretty lawns, flowers, and fountains!  We got to meet a movie star -- the horsie from 'Sea Biscuit' ... and we got to play in the kids' area in the infield!  There was a playground, pony rides, bouncers, and carnival games for us to enjoy there!  All of that before the races even began!  :)  Danni and I had fun watching the horses race -- we tried to pick winners by the color they were wearing.  None of the pink or blue horses had any luck that day...  :(  We finished up the day with a nice picnic lunch!  We can't wait to go back!
