On our way to Palm Springs 

Palm Springs is a desert resort city within the Coachella Valley and is about 170 kms East of LA. It is 240km squared, making it the largest city in the country by land area. With more golf courses than any other region in California, it is the perfect place for […]

Final day 2015 Masters

We were on a shuttle at 6am, to get to the Masters and queue to put your chair in a good spot.  Bleary eyed exisiting on the adrenalin from the excitement of being at the masters on the final day, we were buzzing.  Even the thought of hanging around for […]

Ryder Cup at Palmetto

     Totally inspired by the Masters, we ventured off to Palmetta which is in Aiken.  It was the Boys versus the girls and we were ready to take them on.  Sadly, we got our butts kicked, the opposition team had a hole in one, and eagle and so many […]

Pinehurst No 8

Delayed in Dallas

Not sad about this at all… As you will have read our inbound Qantas flight was delayed by 3.5 hours leaving us an hour to connect to our Raleigh-Durham flight.  Minutes and seconds count, we are held outside the stand for a few minutes TICK TOCK.  We were taught to […]
