Batam Golf Trip

07Jul08

Was devastated that Federer lost to Nadal. Received an SMS from Vanessa that Nadal won… it was 4:30am in the morning.

Just 50 minutes later I was awake preparing my journey to Tenah Merah Ferry Terminal.

Ferry to Batam

Took the ferry there for 30 minutes, I slept throughout the journey.

Putting Training

After arriving it was chipping and putting practice/training session.

Buggy

Then we took the buggy for a ride around the course to familiarise ourselves with the course rules and other things.

Course

Then… the best time came. Playing the course on our own. We played a total of 18 holes whole the other group only played 9. Well, because we were faster and we overtook them by a lot.

Last few hole

One of the last few holes, by the beach… very scenic, I love.

Green

The damn green that caused me by bogey. I didn’t count the first 9 holes because they were utterly disastrous. I mean, it’s my first time playing on the course. Hazard here and there lost many balls.

However I did count the second course (9 holes) and I scored a +15. Not so bad for a beginner! It’s called beginner’s luck.

Anyway I met 3 pilots there plus a guy who opens a crab restaurant. I sat with this pilot called Billy in the ferry and we talked a lot about education and stuff like this. Got quite a few things into my head by his preaching. He’s the pilot of the A380. The other pilots are for 777.

Arrived in Singapore approximately 8:30pm and am back home now, doing projects. Back to reality… back to reality…
