Tobago days 1-3


Okay, well really day one and two. At least it wasn't snow... and actually it only rained in short bursts and dried pretty quickly. I'd still take the occasionally wet 28 odd Celsius over the big zero it was back in Hogtown. We stay the first few days on the Tobago Hilton properties, Plantation Villas. It's an assortment of the hotel, semi-detached condos and detached villas. Our place was very nice, two bedrooms and bathrooms with a large private deck. Julianne's dad also was nearby in one of the detached villas. A 4 bedroom home with a private pool backing on the golf course.

Honestly, the first few days were pretty low key thanks to the rain. We visited Storebay, a public beach and market but is was pretty quiet due to the unpredictable weather.

On the 3rd day I did get a chance to play the Tobago Plantations course. A PGA ranked course and stop on the seniors tour.



Definitely a nice course with great weather but the highlight was the 3rd hole where the rolling waves against the rocks backdrop the green. (an impressive single bogey on the most difficult hole on the course)

So for the LuMBeR crew... the verdict...well read it for yourselves... and only 6 lost balls.
