Golf ... in December




One of the positive things about living in a sub-tropical climate is that you can golf year-round. I bought a one-year golf membership at the Orient Golf Course in Macau. There are only two courses in Macau which limits golf opportunities and makes permanent memberships very expensive. Two students from my school are aspiring golf pros so I have golfed with them on two occasions. These young ladies are only in grade ten yet they consistently shoot in the 70's and I can barely out-drive them from the tee. On our first round together, I managed to shoot an all-time best 76 while Demi shot a 75 and Ginger shot a 79. The second time we played, Demi shot a 78, Ginger 80 and I followed up with a sparkling 89. Friends that I golf with will understand how that happened. Needless to say, it is a lot of fun golfing in December!
