Day 160 - Hole In One ... nearly!

ok - my last full day in miami and i am still "at home" ...

the hotel has a "hole-in-one" instructional program that it runs with the local golf course which i filmed the other day for the show. today, clay (chef from azul), ned (from crandon golf course) and myself played a full 18-holes at crandon - which is on key biscayne.

the course is tough - lots of water - sea & fresh ... alligators, crocodiles, iguanas, raccoons and mosquitos the size of elephants. only the last two created any stress - gemima the hungry raccoon followed us about the full 18 holes hoping for food! she was very sweet and very non-confrontational!

hole-in-one - well - hole 13 - over the water - 7-iron ... stopped 4 centrimetres past the hole after bouncing off the pin! i was in agony ... but hey - another day! my shot of a lifetime ... so the hole-in-one package works - almost!!!

what an afternoon though!

so back at the hotel, i smoked cigars on balcony, drank fine champagne and smiled all evening!

i have to leave miami tomorrow -- and the lovely mandarin -- but i will be back ...

4 centimetres - so close but yet so far ....!
