Horses chase cruise ship: 'Take us with you!'

When the cruise ship Celebrity Equinox departed from the German town of Papenburg, where it was built, it was forced to navigate the narrow, tricky River Ems en route to its official launch. On the way, it came close to land near the northern German town of Leer. (The ship is scheduled to officially begin service, departing from Southampton, England, on July 31.)
Although we know horses wouldn't enjoy the cruising lifestyle (if nothing else, they'd look even sillier than humans wearing socks with sandals), we can't help thinking this herd looks a little wistful as the floating vacation spot passes them by.
