Last night I competed in the first ever ( I think) Backyard Olympics hosted at the Eden House. We had a 3 event competition consisting of Badminton, Bocce Ball, and Ladder Ball. Countries represented were Morracco, Djibouti, Norway, Germany and Kazakhstan.
The first match of Badminton was Morracco (Charlie, Melissa & Grace) vs. Djibouti (Adam & I). This was no problem for Djibouti, thanks to a 21-month old wandering around. Second match was Norway (Ali & Craig) vs. Germany (Brian & Laura). Germany won. Djibouti held on in the final match, but Germany won on an ace for the Gold.
Bocce Ball was a close one for Djibouti too, but Silver once again. With Ladder Ball there were some struggles as the sun was setting and one member of Djibouti (who shall remain nameless, though it's not me) says he has poor night vision, whatever, we lost.
Good times on a nice Friday evening.
