Tennis Anyone?

After church today, I got together with my collegue, Keat (pronounced Key it) to play some tennis at the JW Marriott, the hotel where I am staying. The grass court is on the sixth floor next to the pool. We played two sets and I am proud to say that I am undefeated in Malaysia, winning 6-1, 6-3!! It was good to get some exercise as I have been sitting on my fat butt for 8 days now. The filtered sunshine heated things up into the 90's so two sets was plenty. After our game, I went for a swim.

This pic is after we finished. We were both more tired than either of us cared to admit.
Meet Ashley (pronounced oshlee). This little girl was a pistol. She came onto the court like she owned the place and had the best time chasing the balls. She got in the way...a lot! She was so cute though. She would run right across the court, laughing, and saying i got it...i got it. No clue where her parents were. When Keat asked her where she was from, she said "upstairs!" She was a joy to have around until she went after Keat's wallet, which was sitting on one of the chairs in the picture above. Fortunately, I saw her through the corner of my eye, as did one of the pool attendants. She was escorted off of the court crying, and kicking. She settled down and watched us finish out from outside the fence. She agreed to a picture so here she is!
