Don't let the score fool you!! I literally crushed my lesser opponents. I started feeling so bad towards the end of the course, when I think I was leading by a dozen strokes or more, I let up and tried to play down at their level. I think I might receive an Oscar nomination for the way I acted like I was still trying.
Trust me when I say it would have brought tears to the eyes to those who were lucky enough to see me in all my mini-golfing glory. And I must say it had to have been extremely comforting to my less adept competition, to experience the humble way in which I carried myself during the game. You would NEVER have known that I started off leading on the first hole and never looked back. Through it all I was supportive and encouraging, even offering tips on the best way to play the hole.
Yes, as Miss Cleo knew all along, playing golf with blue balls can help, but only when the balls are being batted around with a good putter, wielded by a skilled player. Alas, the secret weapons smuggled in from Canada did NOTHING to help them beat the superior player. You need more powerful mojo to beat one of the world's best mini-golf players, Madonna. Not even the annoying kid named Benjamin, nor the extreme heat could throw me off.
And don't you worry MrsA, no one was thrown off the course. We did all the dirty stuff in the misty cave, out of sight of the CM's. It's a shame I lost my boxers somewhere in there...they were my favorite pair too!! We don't have any pics of what went on in the cave, however. There was no one with a free hand to hold the camera.
Will there be a rematch? Oh I certainly hope so!! I'd like to start planning it right now. I'm sure the next time will be even more fun. Perhaps we can try Winter Summerland, who knows? Maybe even tour the country, visiting different courses.
The strange thing is...I don't recall what we decided the prize would be. And whatever it is, I don't think I've had it bestowed on me yet. Just in case, I'm stopping off at the grocery store for a big can of olive oil.
I can't wait to start planning for the next meet!
