beholder and mattia on the rope bridge

To be free from giddiness is definitely a must for a real extreme backgammon player! Especially if you want to enjoy a nice spot and play a nice backgammon match at the same time. This picture shows the rope bridge built to access Carrick-a-Rede island Check the map! in county Antrim/North Ireland. Originally built to assist slamon fishery, the swinging rope bridge is now a perfect place for real extreme backgammon hardcore! As usual - click on the picture to see the high resolution image - we are not faking here!!!

Damn, you probably have no idea how camel farts smell!? You´re lucky! It´s beastly!!! Anyway - the trip into the desert was definitely worth it! It starts to be fun when you are used to sitting on a camel without thinking about John Wayne! And thats the point where backgammon comes in place! I can´t remeber who made it, but oolong was a strong opponent!

Winning the palm!

“Come closer and see, see into the trees” - what a nice day that was in Gokarna. Two individuals and a backgammon board - thats all you need to enjoy a good game and the great view at the same time! Off course I doubled the palm out in a thrilling 7 point match! By the way: Do not play versus cows in Gokarna! They are much more aggressive than the holy ones in Arambol ;-)

Me playing against a cow in Arambol!

Yeah! Arambol is great! Especially when you are playing a relaxed Backgammon during the impressive heat in the afternoon! But I can tell you: our cow here knows how to roll the dices… :-)
