This is the happy go lucky group not so much for the tournament but more on the food & drink. And here they were at Meishi Mayflower International Golf Club at 88 West Binhai road, Haikou city 海口.
The weather was wonderful never played in such a condition before, very windy but fun at time with laughter and adventure here and there……

1st Dinner @ Haikou City 海口, Hainan Island 海南, China
This is our first dinner in Haikou City 海口 and we were brought to this Ai Wan Ting Restaurant 爱晚亭.
This is an interesting dish a mixture of braised beef stomach (nice looking honeycomb), tongue, duck wings, gizzard and tofu at the bottom.
After the dinner we adjourned to Baohua Harbour View Hotel. Checking into the hotel required your body temperature to be recorded before you can get your room key. Then it’s time to finish our quota of whiskey of the day.
Char Siu was delicious but not as sweet and sticky as those found in the land of Malaysia.
Our buddies love to eat, drink and chat. After finishing the Tour’s dinner we ordered for more two dishes (braised dish & Char Siu). What a way to enjoy our holiday.
Hainanese Chicken just likes the one we have it in Malaysia, as good and yummy…

Haikou Golf Cup @ Hainan Island 海南, China - Day 1
Our golf journey to China finally came as planned, to Haikou City 海口 of Hainan Island 海南 for a golf tournament (Haikou Cup) organized jointly by local Tour Agencies & Haikou Tourism Board. This trip cost us approximately RM1,800 each for a 4 Days 3 Nights break inclusive of 3 breakfasts and 3 dinners.
Besides equipping ourselves with golf clubs and balls, we have to equip ourselves with a bottle of whiskey each for the trip.
Due to a delay of 1 hrs 45 mins by Air Asia. We have to skip our lunch and head for Hainan Dongshan Golf Club, a 6,995-yd golf course designed by our own Malaysian Mr. C J Tan.

This must a scary experience for Wei Teck as he was identified by a Health Officer at the airport as a possible victim of AH1N1 from the Thermal Scan and was asked to be observed by another Health Officer fully in white protective suit in a separate room. After a couple of minutes of checking he was cleared, his temperature was alright and allowed to enter China. Welcome to China.
Arthur's Day @ Sunway Lagoon 25 September '09
It was a BOOM BOOM night, a night for the celebration of Arthur’s 250 years of “Or Kow” aka black dog in Hokkien dialect at Sunway Lagoon. The BOOM BOOM night was made possible by Black Eyed Peas and of course Guinness de Company for the free flow of the wonderful draft all night through… the black and lovely aroma of Guinness Draft.. Thanks again Guinness.
