Golf

Hola Amegos ,
Yesterday we did golf with Paul/ Mr Golf. He taught us that the less you score the better.  The person with the lowest score wins. In these photos I'm waiting for my turn and getting the balls for my team. It was so much fun. We had to use the roller to hit the ball at the bullseye. If you hit it you yelled out SNAG!  Thank you Paul.
