Polo Party

Recently, we decided to immerse ourselves in a English sporting event not commonly seen in the US: a polo match. We had many questions about this sport having never seen it in action (How many horses are there? Is is full contact? Is there a goalie horse?) and were incredibly excited about checking out the polo spectators' attire (well, one of us was). Wanting to make sure and blend in, we took the event incredibly seriously...
Testing the gear
Striking a pose avec le champagne
At the Crown & Corgi, where many a Pimms was consumed
Classing it up in front of the marquee
As expected, we left the match feeling as though our cultural immersion was complete and we obviously needed to plan a family polo match ASAP.  As soon as we all learned how to ride a horse while playing polo, that is.  Possibly a new Thanksgiving tradition?
