Experiencing the horse racing in Keiba Tokyo!

    Regardless of the gloomy rainy weather, our YCCS program students in Yokohama National University had an experience to watch the horse racing. Since I was grew up in Germany, I had several experiences to interact with the horses. The reason is because horses are one of the lovely pets in Germany. I was curious how would be the horse racing be like. 

     The first thing I felt when I went to the stadium was that the atmosphere were like the library. Everyone was reading books and it looked like they were studying hard. At first, I didn't know that the book was a publication ticket. I was curious because it was my first time, and I didn't know how to buy a ticket by looking at what horse racing was doing and how to buy a ticket. I tried it once and it was amazing, but I didn't want to try again. 

    At first, it started with excitement and I didn't know the time was passing. When I realized it was already evening. My opinion is that I think it's okay to play a few games for fun, but  if you can't control yourself, don't start. Because it is easy to lose more money. 

    In Korea, there is a saying, "There is no such thing as free." It was the horse racing that made me realize this. Therefore, I thought it is better to live hard and make money because addiction is not good. But I thought it was okay to come with families or friends because there are some restaurants which sells good foods and there is a place to experience to interact with the horses in the Keiba Stadium. It would have been better if the weather was nice, but still I had fun experiencing the horse racing.
