Houyhouynms

Houyhouynm Island Brainstorm Ideas:

ñ Show Yahoo

ñ Show world where horses rein supreme

ñ huts, mats, social order

ñ Gulliver talking with horses or teaching

ñ yahoos and their facination with shiney stones, food, war

ñ Show comparison to European yahoos

Ride Progression

ñ Move through jungle by boat-river ride like

ñ Show yahoos slowly-curious at first

ñ yahoos advance, but then become scared and defend their shiney rocks, food, and territory

ñ throwing rocks that come up short of boat

ñ swinging overhead

ñ Move into Houyhouynm villiage

ñ tame yahoos penned up or working

ñ horse lifestyle and world- young horses coming up curious and running alongside boat with strangers like human kids

ñ Gulliver talking with them/teaching

ñ Show meeting where Houyhouynms decide keeping Gulliver is wrong

ñ Gulliver decides to leave

ñ Exit by boat out to sea with horses following

ñ One Houyhouynm crying out “Fair thee well, gentle yahoos!” to riders.

*Peaceful, airy, park like setting

*Mainly river ride, rough near yahoos, gentle near Houyhouynm

*Story told along with ride?
