A group of teachers from school were organizing a trip to one of Malaysia's premier golf courses, about four hours north. While I (Doug) am certainly not a golfer, I thought it would be fun father/son bonding time to hit the course. With Father's Day coming soon, it served as an even better inspiration.
The course was truly, spectacular, and lived up to its billing as a wonderful course right on the edge of the Straits of Malacca, on the West Coast of Malaysia. The course is rated the third most scenic course in Malaysia, and its signature hole (pictured above and below) is rated the 2nd most scenic hold in Malaysia. 
Doug was also quite happy to score his first par, and hit his first green in regulation. It is a minor victory, but our golfing partner, Mike, was quite gracious, putting up with all of Doug's hacking -- after all, it was the first time that Doug had ever played 18 holes of golf in a day. Nothing like a scenic outing -- and dad certainly enjoyed the Father's Day outing courtesy of his children.

This blog would be incomplete without a word of appreciation from "the Dad being honored," ... so, many thanks to Doug, Mark and Tasha for making it such a memorable event! (Too bad I didn't bring my "A game" to the occasion.)
