Day 661 – Esperence, Australia
Day 661 – 31st March 2007 +7:00 GMT
Martin and I got up at 7am and left to play golf. We got to Esperence golf course and we were the only ones there. The club house opened at 10am but you could pay $20 green fees and play. Unfortunately we did not have any golf clubs and needed to hire them. So we got back in the car and drove to the other golf course which is at Pink Lake. Same situation here but we did find out we can hire club from the sports shop in Esperence town centre. So we drive back into Esperence and find the sports shop. We have to wait for the assistant to turn up for work before they can leave the shop and get us some golf clubs, we eventually get sorted out and head back to Esperence golf course. We tee off just after 9am, the course is fantastic with very well laid greens the only issue is they have some geese like birds pecking around the edges of every green and the occasionally kangaroo or two hiding behind trees on the fairways. There are a lot of water hazards on this course as the course is built around several large lakes, one tee off point is on an island in the centre of a lake. Anyway I got around in a respectful 117. We got back to the hostel just before 3pm and we chilled out for a bit. A few hours later Martin and I and two other guys from the hostel went to Chesters the local bar and had a few beers and played some pool, I left just before midnight and headed back to the hostel.
