Day 6 - Sports Activity



On our sixth day we had our sports activity scheduled. We got up early and grabbed some breakfast at the hostel and headed out. The taxi took us out of the busy city and out to the more peaceful outskirts of the city, the Lisbon Sports Club was our destination. The Lisbon Sports Club was founded in 1880 by English settlers, the club offers numerous sport opportunities, its main attractions being the prestigious 18 hole golf course. We got some lunch at the clubhouse and then headed out on the course. Since none of us are golf experts and to save some money we decided to play the 9 hole course instead of all 18. Adam completely owned everyone on the golf course even though it was his first time and everyone else had golfed numerous times throughout their lives. After a long day on the course we went back into the city to have a nice sit down dinner. We went to Casa da Comida and had dinner and a couple good bottles of wine. Since we had spent all day out in the sun on the golf course that day we were pretty tired so we just took it easy and went back to the hostel and crashed. Our total spending for the day was 328 dollars.

It was hard to play, since we didn't pack our golf clubs on the trip, and the Lisbon Sports Club doesn't rent golf clubs. I think Adam had a bit too much wine at dinner, and doesn't remember our day too clearly.....
