Norfolk Island Golf Classic

Well the sun is brightly shining today on Norfolk Island's annual Golf Classic, but it certainly wasn't yesterday.  A heavy continuous fall of rain saw the Classic being closed yesterday. It seems that around the town, the visiting golfers managed to enjoy themselves anyway, but as I said, the sun is shining today so all is well.

 Some of the visiting golfers out on the green

 ... and more of them just across the way. Great to see the golf course so filled with people

 The clubhouse was built by convicts during the second penal settlement (early 1800's)and now sits in the World Heritage area of Kingston

 My son striding to chip onto the green from his drive off the tee

 Second shot and hopefully, straight as a dye into the hole

 Other players doing similar things

 Lining up for the long shot ~ and waiting their turn

A powerful swing that will hopefully, fly in the right direction.

Corinna is at the Clubhouse very early until very late, ensuring that everyone is fed and watered. Well done Lads and Lassies.  This is the sort of event we want on Norfolk Island ~ one that brings in smiling, happy people!
