Hong Kong’s Olympic Equestrian Class

For the first part of the week I’m in Hong Kong, covering – of all things – equestrian events. I’ll have more to say about all of that – including the venues (complete with photos) – tomorrow, probably.

For now, I’ll just say that I’m in a hotel that houses members of the US and British equestrian teams, along with many of their fans, and I am no longer under the impression that this is a sport for the Common Man. Seriously, if you go by accents, the Lobby Lounge currently contains quorums for the House of Lords and the Hyannis Port Charity Ball Planning Committee, respectively. Now excuse me while I go order a Big Mac.

More later …
