 Oecussi Horse Racing
Horse racing is one of the big events in Oecussi. The other is waiting for the rainy season to start.
The horsemen camp out near the airport under the trees and start racing in the late afternoon.
I was able to go down and meet them but did not get to see the actual races because the ferry to Dili left around the same time that the races started.
There are some great looking horses which are raced bareback around an oval track.
The owners were proud of their horses all wanted me to take a photo for good luck.
