Ah, it’s my last day here in Vegas and I’m gonna miss it. I’m ready to head home though, but I certainly made use of my last day. To begin I went out and played 18 holes at Steven Wynn’s famous golfcourse here in Vegas. This was my second time playing at the $500 per round course (we had our round comp’d) and it really is quite an experience. If you ever get the chance to play at the course, take it, it’s really quite amazing. It literally is an amazing first class golf course smack dab in the middle of the Vegas strip. It’s unlike anything you will probably ever see. You walk in, check in, then the incredibly kind staff takes you to the locker room, lets you rent clubs, and basically aids you with whatever you may need. Before heading out they cleaned my golf shoes, re-laced them, and got us water and drinks. You really do get the service that you pay for at the course. Because of the high price, its easy to get tee times and there usually are very few people playing at one time. And, the best part is you get a caddy to ride on the back of your golf cart and help you out. Our caddy today was a really nice guy, name’s Alexio (sorry if I spelt that wrong!). He was a great help, and had good excuses for whenever I messed up a shot (and that was often). My personal favorite would have to be, “Oh you just had a terrible lie, that’s all” when of course I had a perfect lie. So even though I didn’t play well, I shot a 109 in 18, it was a good time. And, Alexio was good for conversation, because he too is a Mac and iPhone fan. So that lightened the mood when I was basically hitting the ball every direction but straight. Sure, just talk about blogging after you slice a shot, perfect cure. So yeah, that was a pretty good start to the day. We finished 18 in about four hours, finishing up around 2PM, not bad. Especially considering that Alexio was telling us stories of groups that took seven and a half hours to play 15 holes of golf. Can you imagine? Why even bother playing?! I don’t get it, but whatever. Good start. (more…)
