What Is Mr. Toad's Wild Race?

[Zandy595]

The 7-Day Eastern Navigator has it on Sunday at 2:30pm.

Join your Cruise Staff and bring the whole family for this great race. Frist 16 teams to register will name their Toad for this unique race. Lobby Atrium, Deck 3, Midship.

Has anyone done this? I'm sure they don't really have toads onbaord, but it's a little vague about who does the racing. Can anyone explain?

they are wooden frogs that are on a string and you have to use the string to make the frog "hop" whoever gets their frog to the finish line first wins....

Is it something worth doing? Do you win a prize?

I think the winners got medals or keychains...
It seemed that it is mostly something that people with kids are able to participate in... It was very popular on our cruise, so they picked the kids first and said if there was time they would take adults.
It was fun to watch anyway!
