Barefoot Lawn Bowling!!

Hi Everyone! A lot has been going on, but I haven't updated because MY CAMERA BROKE! :( The pictures from today's update are from a friend's camera. But regardless, I've been having a good time. Last night we to the Newcastle Country Club and played outdoor, barefoot, lawn bowling. And yeah- it's always played barefoot- that wasn't just an idea of our own! The view of the city from the course was incredible!
A quick pre-game photo at the country club! Little did we know what we were getting ourselves in to!
Here's my action shot of the night! Basically how you play is everyone gets into teams and a yellow "jack" ball is rolled to the other side of the lawn. Then everyone takes their own lawn balls and rolls them down. The closest one to the jack wins the round! Now the TRICK is that one side of each bowling ball is heavier than the other, causing it to roll and wobble from side to side. It's actually a lot trickier than it seems!
Here's the group of people I went with! I have no clue what his name is, but the guy next to me was by far the best. It was a great night! :)
Anyway, I'm in class right now and I'm sort of getting lost in the lecture- so I should go. But hopefully I'll get my camera fixed soon so I can upload more stuff! I hope you're all doing well! I love and miss you guys! A lot.
