Ah! Of course. No I didn’t, but maybe next time.

Oh, those fancy hats they wear to the races. And other fancy events.

I’m ashamed to admit that I have no idea what a fascinator is ????

I worked for a company that shipped horses around the world, mainly race horses and thoroughbreds. So, that’s been my only taste of it. How fun for you though. You made the photography look effortless. But what I really want to know is if you wore a fascinator? 😀

Twice now we’ve been planning to go and then both times the ground was too wet for racing. A friend of ours has a racehorse so I think they also get access to these special boxes 🙂

Sadly, I’m not sure I saw any hats. But I’ll bet you’d see some on the bigger race days.

I’m not sure if people wear hats anymore.
