Lots of Balls

Woke up on Saturday, went to the fat burning session at the gym, and then off to the driving range to hit some balls!


Had to practice for the game of golf I was going to play on Sunday.

Had a few hours to kill before my evening plans so I decided to catch some rays.


I will inform you that it is illegal to tan in a tanning booth in Brisbane (they don't even have them), so I made my own tanning booth on my balcony.  I only get rays for a few hours in the am before the sun goes behind some buildings so I have to catch it at the right time.  I don't want to lose my tan from vacation, so I gotta do what I gotta do.  

Saturday night met up with some friends and went to the Eat Street Markets.  Think of a festival with ALL food--it was a foodie's dream come true!  I decided on the Greek stand and got a lamb kabob and a chicken kabob.  I've been on a health kick lately so I went light on the dessert.


Decided on a mini alcohol infused cupcake.  I chose an orange one and you push the little syringe and it infuses the cupcake with alcohol.  You had to be 18 in order to buy one (that is the drinking age here).  Let me just say, it was fantastic and I was quite impressed with the concept!  Such a fun night out--thanks for suggesting the idea Claire:)


Brad, me, Ross, Debbie, Dave & Claire

Sunday was the big day of golf.  Headed to the town of The Gap (I shit you not).  For proof I took a picture off of my phone of the weather.  I also wanted my Gap buddies to see this fun town that exists in Australia! 



Dave, Brian, me, Ross and Brad

Since there were 5 of us we split into teams.  Brian and Brad vs Dave, myself and Ross.  We still did a scramble so we could keep the game going at a steady pace.  I will let you know that we used my ball on more than one occasion (remember how I told you I was Tiger back in his days of glory), well I wasn't kidding (well....kinda) ;) 




I am not the best golfer, but I can hit the ball and it's a lot of fun.  I have already contacted a few friends back home to play when I get back.  I have clubs, might as well use them--right?!  I will have to go shopping for some actual golf attire though-ha!

Another fun filled weekend in the town of Brisbane!
