#oneaday Day 204: On Tha Gleen

Today's main activity was Adventure Golf, better known as crazy golf or miniature golf, depending on your preferred nomenclature.

This was good fun! I don't play minigolf very often, but I always enjoy it when I do, even though my putting skills leave something to be desired. It's difficult applying my knowledge of golf games to the real world! You don't have a handy grid with moving lines showing inclines in the real world, okay?

The minigolf course here at Elveden Forest is pretty neat — it's on an actual island in the middle of the lake we went boating on yesterday, and the island itself is heavily wooded, so the whole course is beneath a pleasantly shady canopy of trees. This is good, because today was a brightly sunny day — not overly hot and nicely breezy, but still the sort of weather that would probably burn and/or give you sunstroke if you spent too long out in it.

After the golf, we spent some time lounging in the pool again. There's a really nice little pool as part of the overall complex called the "Lagoon Pool", which appears to be salted water. It's thoroughly pleasant to relax in, and really good for floating aimlessly around in. It's also probably the closest I'll get to an anime-style "hot spring" over here in the UK.

Tomorrow we have to be out of our accommodation by 10am, so we're going to have some breakfast, pack up then spend a couple of hours enjoying the pool before we leave. Then it's off to my parents' place for a kind of "second holiday" — it'll be the first time pretty much the whole Davison clan has been in one place for quite some time, so it'll be good to see everyone, including my brother and his family.

S'pose I should probably get some sleep then!
