All that I can say about this event was "WOW". This was quite the experience. The golf course, golfers and fellow volunteers were all amazing. Learned a bunch about golf and even more about Dominicans in general as we associated with a much different class of Dominican than I had in the past. Special thanks to you Hillbilly for all of your translating help for us spanish challenged speakers and as well to Willie and Henry who made us feel like long lost friends.
The game I saw played is definately a different game than I have seen before - they make it look so easy. Put some of what I learned from watching into effect on Monday playing La Cana and closed with birdie, birdie, par, par. Also got to play Metro and Guavaberry on this trip. Cannot wait to go back and play at Cap Cana - I play Playa Grande twice weekly and absolutely love it but Playa Espada's conditioning and wow factor is definately top notch.
Will I be back next year - FOR SURE. I will however next year bring running shoes for all the walking (always thought my golf shoes were comfy - not after that much walking) and will be searching out SPF 50 lotion as I am now on about the fourth layer of skin on my face since fridays opening round.
