PD Trip - The Other Pool

We had a
good night sleep after all the
beach walking and
swimming throughout the whole evening. Since our room was furnished with
two single beds, we had to
merge them together so that Little Skywalker doesn't
fall off the bed while doing his
360 degrees turn in his sleep. The
air conditioning was extremely
efficient throughout the entire suite. We had to put on
thick blankets all through the night. (Little Skywalker even had to move into the
closet to escape the winter attack!)

The
first activity we did when we woke up was head down to the
games room. It is located at the ground floor next to the gym. We wanted to go in after dinner the
night before but it was already
closed (the caretaker decided that he wanted to leave 30 minutes earlier). The
pool table was of particular interest to me (and Little Skywalker). It cost
RM2 per game, which was RM1
cheaper than the place I normally played (at the basement of that
Grand Season Hotel which
served bad food to a mouth picky blogger I know).

The
kakak (or she preferred to be called
nenek since she is already had 2 grandchildren) who is taking care of the games room
liked Little Skywalker very much. She even
carried him and sit in front of an
arcade machine. She
handled our son very well and
taught him how to
play on the arcade without putting in
coins. They spend some time together with J
watching by the side, while I
concentrated on the pool table.
After 15 minutes of "playing with myself", there was only the
black eight ball left on the table. I carried Little Skywalker and put him
on the table. Then I taught him to play pool by
pushing the last ball down the
pocket. Below is a
step-by-step illustration on teaching a
one year old to play pool. Maybe you should teach your babies, but don't get them
addicted, as it is a costly game :P
Step 1: Height check, unless your one year old is 4-5 feet tall, proceed to Step 2.
Step 2: Sit him on the table, align the ball nicely, take aim!
Step 3: Shoot, pull back, and wait for the impact!
Step 4: Make sure all the balls (screw the rules!) make the pocket!
Step 5: Raise the cue stick, look at the camera and say "Jedi Rules!"
Or, you could just...
