Tennis and BBQ

This afternoon I got together with my coworkers to play tennis. No one
takes the game too seriously and it's basically a way to get some
exercise on the weekends. However, I'm the youngest of our project
members and also the least experienced tennis player, so I decided to
take some lessons while I'm in Manaus. I spoke with an instructor at the
club and he agreed to start lessons with me tomorrow morning at 8am.
I'll take a half-dozen lessons, which will help me to improve my basic
game, and hopefully reduce the number of wild fly balls over the fence.
It will also be good to get extra exercise because tonight we went to
Gaucho's Churrascaria again, a Brazilian BBQ restaurant. I had about a
half-dozen cuts of different meat, and some selections from the salad
bar just for good measure. At the end of the night we were all stuffed
and a few of us decided to walk the 5 blocks back to the hotel. I think
I'll sleep well tonight, and then tomorrow I can burn some calories
during my first tennis lesson.
