Mini-Golf, Anyone?

I can remember many times as a child going to play Putt-Putt with my folks. I remember being quite bad at the game. (Go figure.) But, more than that, I remember always having fun and lots of giggles.


I am happy to report that not much has changed in the world of mini-golf since I was a child. I am still quite bad at the game, but it is still lots of fun and brings a smile and a laugh to everyone. In fact, it's probably more fun now to be the adult and watch the kids giving it a go and having a ball.


Some months ago, we took the littlies down the Gold Coast (thanks to some discount vouchers) and had an afternoon of mini-golf fun. Both kids did great - even scoring a few Hole-in-Ones!






And, of course, like any REAL golfer knows, you don't really tell the truth on those stroke cards. Well, that would just be silly, wouldn't it? So, our young Tiger-in-Training, when asked how many strokes it took him to make the above shot (knowing full well that the count was at least 10) had this to say....

So much fun! We haven't taken the boys since last summer... There aren't a whole lot of places to go around here, unfortunately.

Nice to have you back in blog land!
Thanks for the message about my dad, he is slowly getting there.

I just laughed my head off, I was checking out your links and thought oh oh, lets see the wise one, and was looking at myself, too funny.

love to you both

Sounds about right - Robbie went putt-putting this past weekend - he thought it was more fun to run up and steal your ball than to hit his own!
