Due to my tanned skin from Florida, accompanying a good-looking foreign gentleman at the same time, made everyone think I can speak Thai. Whenever Vic says something, the waiter looks at me / the cashier looks at me / the driver looks at me; I just used a phase "Mai Kao Chai thai" and shake my head, means I don't understand thai, don't expect me to speak that to you. I am a tourist too.
We played Springfield Golf Club today, it was very muggy and slight rain in the morning, we walked 18 hole with caddie and it was tough because it is a mountain course, some greens are 10 minutes walk from the next tee. I felt very good to about the 12th hole, then it felt like I was mountain hiking to my ball, when I arrive to where my ball is on the fairway, I lost the strength to hit the ball already.
But it is very nice to play with a true caddie, not a fore caddie who drive your cart and clean ball for 4 players at the same time. She was my own caddie, she carried my bag, clean my club, rake the bunker, tell me how far to the pin, how far to carry the water hazard and how the ball will break.
We went for massages after golf, Vic could hardly move afterward. Well, I told him our next round would be at the Black Mountain also walking up and down, he would take a cart instead of walking I guess.
The heat was also a factor to take a lot out of us, the sun came out after light rain, we could feel the steam is coming out from the ground and the sun was out to beat down on us on the whole back nine. We bought 10 bottle water along the way, no kidding, easy to get dehydrated under this condition.
