Golf Praslin

Me, Brendan and Alec flew over to Praslin today for a round of golf on the beautiful Lemuria Hotel Golf Course. Here comes our plane..Me and Brendan in our Formula 1 Golf Buggy...
Some of the holes are very tough. The green is the spec of grass in the distance marked by the arrow. Unless you are Tiger Woods you have to pick your way round the edge of the lake. Here's Brendan teeing off...
Alec putting out.
After lunch in the very posh hotel bar we headed out for the second nine holes which proved even more of a challenge. Tee No.15 was on top of a cliff. We were very glad of those golf buggies..
Brendan teeing off on another tee-with-a-view...
The last hole was 520 yards with the tee on top of another cliff. Here's the view from the tee, with the islands of Cousin and Cousine in the distance. The green is on the right beyond the lake..
Despite some very dodgy golf shots it has been a brilliant day.

P.S. Hope all the CANDIs had a top 20 Year Reunion in Plymouth. Sorry I couldn't be there...
