Big Fun, Mini Golf
By: Gaylin
In Spring 2005 my travel friend and I were leaving Blizzard Beach, I noticed the sign for Winter Summerland Miniature Golf and we decided to take some time to play a 'round'.
Believe it or not, I had never played mini golf before and don't play big golf either. Turns out that mini golf is a lot of fun. You have a choice of two courses, the Winter side, which is all themed winter and Christmas and the Summer side which is themed summer and Christmas!
We chose the Winter side and it was a lot of fun, 9 holes and all of them had some kind of challenge, slopes, moving pieces, lots of theming to enjoy.
This first hole is set up like an outdoors hockey rink and the hole is in front of the goalies net!
This is my lame attempt to get the golf ball int that square in the front of the toboggan. You might notice that there is no hair at the back of my neck, I had my head shaved a few weeks before that vacation, for charity! Being bald was the easiest vacation hairstyle I ever had!
If I remember correctly, not only did you have to get the golf ball into the castle door, it had to go to the right spot inside to roll out to the right to get to the hole.
Next time I will try the Fantasia Gardens Mini Golf outside the Boardwalk Resort.
I keep meaning to make time for this on each WDW vacation and then forget or something. I played the summer side once and loved it!
ReplyDeleteDon't think I'm willing to shave my head though!
I got quite a lot of second looks being a woman with a shaved head! Not necessary for mini-golf!
DeleteI did raise $1500 for the local Children's Hospital, thought that was a nice amount to donate.
