Pony swim

I've gone to the pony swim three times in the past. This year we missed it by a couple of days on purpose to avoid the crowds. But it is a great event. They swim across a narrow waterway and then march to the down town area, guided by Salt Water Cowboys. It is majestic sight to see the wide ponies parade down the town's main street and then to the carnival grounds. Then next morning some of the ponies are auctioned off to raise money for the local fire department. All the ponies are given their yearly check up by veterinarians. The following day they cross back to the island they came from.

Only if you are Russian

Now you need a vpn to cover your vpn

Many countries don't allow or fight encryption. Isn't that similar issue?

Ok. Do you have an background stories about the saltwater cowboys and why the ponies swim across the waterway? So it's a catwalk, party and health check before going back to the island?

General description here (maybe where you got photo from?)

I believe the Saltwater Cowboys are primarily the local volunteer fireman.
