Congo River Mini Golf
Mini Golf is always a fun activity. I can’t remember when was the last time though that I actually played mini golf. It must have been years… So I was even happier when the idea was brought up, and of course excited to be able to take some pictures for my blog.
We were quite lucky: it had just rained heavily and the air cooled off. Also, due to the earlier rain there were not many people (unusual for a Friday evening) so we didn’t have to wait at any point. And shortly after we left it actually started raining again. Talk about perfect timing 🙂
Throughout the course of the game I realized that I am not the best player… It was very fun though to at least try! I really like the theme of the Congo River mini golf course in Altamonte Springs (off 436). It’s nicely done and even though you are quite close to the road at some spots, you still feel a bit like on vacation when there. Consisting of 18 rounds you can run through a game with 4 players within about 1.5-2 hours, depending on your skills and on how long each player “plans” their game. I am quite impatient so I just started hitting the ball in the right direction and went from there…
The price seemed kind of high, we paid $50 for the four of us (Jose’s nephew and his girl friend were with us) but I think that is the going rate. At the end of your game though the staff tries to make sure you win a free game for the next time. So out of 4 tickets, 3 of us won a free game – not bad! Also, watch out for coupons before you go, I am sure there are some out there because we were asked repeatedly if we didn’t have any coupons with us…
Below are some more pictures of our fun evening of mini golf in Altamonte…
