[SUPER=03-Leipzig, Germany;]
Teams representing 30-countries took part in the 12th International Bath Tub Race today in Germany. Motors are not allowed, but paddling, pedaling or pushing can be used to bring the tub through an obstacle course, the regatta and bath-tub lancing -- where teams try to burst a balloon in the opponent's craft. This year's winner was Liechtenstein. In addition to the best bath tub warriors award, an award is also handed to the most creative, beautiful or amusingly decorated tub. (------------)
