Happy 'Minigolf Tag' to my fellow minigolfers in Austria!

Each year around 550,000 Austrians (15% of the country's population) play Miniature Golf and today is a celebration of the great game.

In March 2010 I visited the Askoe Wien Wasserpark in Vienna, Austria and got to play one of the toughest (and longest) Swedish Felt Minigolf courses in Europe. The layout was the 163rd course played on the Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. It was also the first place I spotted a Pit-Pat course (a cross between Billiards/Pool/Snooker and Minigolf!).

There are two more 'Mini Golf Days' coming up in 2015 - National Miniature Golf Day is on Saturday 9 May and Miniature Golf Day is on Monday 21 September.
And of course every Monday there's #MinigolfMonday on Twitter!
