Tennis

Saturday and Sunday we finally got to play tennis. Janice had borrowed a racket from school and we went with Cathy to Sunny Day Market to buy a cheap one. I had bought balls at Vangard. Cathy and Janice hadn't played much tennis, but they are both athletic and enthusiastic. It was a bit of a surprise when I took the balls out of the can to find that they were more like toys. I decide we'd give them to the dogs to play with when we finished. After about 20 minutes You Qi showed up. He and a friend had reserved the courts after us, but he had arrived early and offered to play so we'd have a foursome. That turned out to be great. He is really good, but he was very happy to play at our level. His skill and attitude made it much more fun for us, and since we had rented the court for Sunday morning we asked if he wanted to come. He had reserved the court right after us and was glad to come.

We didn't get to play tennis again until Wednesday, October 8th.
