Cheese Rolling!

My family discovered the Cheese Rolling Competition while watching television this weekend!

  Cooper's Hill near Gloucester in England is the site of the cheese rolling race.  Competitiors race down this 200 yard hill, chasing a wheel of Double Gloucester cheese.  First person to cross the finish line wins - whether you are on your feet or not!

As  you can imagine, running down such a steep hill can be tricky!  Several people fall, but the town continues the cheese rolling race because everyone enjoys it.

See you on Friday!
