Golfing Around - Chester, Nova Scotia
Visit our site:
We woke up to another beautiful day in Nova Scotia and headed to the golf course for an early morning tee off with Keith Wilesmith, an assistant golf professional at the Chester Golf Club. Keith is a very kind and patient man (he did put up with us after all!)...If you need tips or lessons, we highly recommend him.
This magical course offers a really outstanding golfing adventure with a spectacular seaside setting. As their website boasts Any missed shots will be due to the distracting beauty of the Atlantic Ocean, the islands, and the colourful sailboats tacking in the wind. As our scores indicated, we were distracted a lot!
Watching Canadian Geese fly above the 16th hole as the sun comes up over the Chester greens, and the mist rises over the water, sure does a lot for the soul and definitely makes it worth getting up at the crack of dawn. Lucky for us, Chris can drive the GCAT van much better than he can drive the ball... FOURRRRR!

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.
