You wake bright and early and find a place to watch the dinosaur races. It is raining lightly (it hasn't stopped raining since you got here) and the main thoroughfare of the city has been cleared of stalls and the streets are lined with gamblers and viewers. You make a number of wagers and wait in the humid street for the races to start The city is famous for its weekly dinosaur races. Dinosaurs are painted in bright designs, and their riders try to steer them along a course that winds around the harbor and the city’s four hills. Spectators are seldom injured, but it’s a dangerous sport for the dinosaurs and their riders. Today there are three races: one for four-legged beasts, one for two-legged beasts, and one no-holds-barred “unchained” race. Many of the dinosaurs involved are juveniles, since fully grown versions can be too large and too difficult for riders to manage. The dinosaurs are stoutly muzzled and have their claws and horns blunted in all but the unchained race. It certainly is thrilling and beasts, riders and spectators are all injured during the racing as well as much property damage. But at the end of the day you find yourself richer than when you started. You head back to the inn to prepare for your jungle expedition the following day.
