Five members of our AFWJ group had a showing near the hotel where we had our convention.
Here a group of us were looking and enjoying their art work.
Hospitality snack in the tatami room. As you can see it was hard to resist the western yummies.
Some of us took a walking tour downtown on Sat. morning. Here we are at the Chiba City Museum of Science. Above we are in the mirror room, wishing we were this thin!
Here I get the feeling of walking on the moon. So many hands on stuff and very little time to do it. So only did a few things. I would love to go back someday when I have all day.
This is our group. The seats recline so we could watch the dome above our head showing the stars. Some of us drifted off to sleep.
Finished my Star Spread and it is now on our bed.
Tuesday, Hitomi and I went to Sunrise Golf, short course. We enjoyed such beautiful weather and a fun hard short course. Above I am tee-ing off through a narrow side hill, that means if I don't hit really straight the ball will hit a tree and come back or roll down to a course below! One time the ball came back and lit at my feet! Because there were no people behind us pushing us we teed off until we got close or on the green!
Hitomi and I posing for a timed shot. We wonder if that castle like structure in the background is a kindergarten or a love hotel?
Lots of waterways to lose balls in. The course if very nice as they give ladies 3 free balls on entering. I lose more than 3 balls each time I do this course but I also usually find a couple more.
Above is your's truly putting. Below is pitching. If I could get those down pat, I could really improve my score! My pitching is probably my weakest point. Either I overshoot and have to pitch again from the other side, or I chip under and it goes only a few feet! This one I usually just putt and forget pitching.
This was a fun place. Atsugi is basically flat but just before this river canal, there was a steep hill to tee off of. It was too far for anyone to get on the green but the goal was to get down the hill and then over this canal to the green. You can see how close Jack came to losing his ball in the canal. Here he is deciding how to get it up on the green. Lucky me on this one I also go across the canal with all my balls! The first photo shows Jack and Andy watching where it lands.
Andy made us a golf reservation Sunday at the Navy base of Atsugi. His classmate joined us and we had a wonderful afternoon enjoying golf on this long many 5 par course.
Below Andy tees off and above he watches to see where it lands.
The name of the golf place was Whispering Pines. Above is the way each hole was labeled.
Our neighbors have 4 cats who bothered another neighbor, so this neighbor decided to keep his cats home by building a jail for them. Occasionally I see them outside, but not for long. We also have a cat but somehow she stays home and if she wanders it isn't over to the cat hating neighbor.
