Mika's Down Under Miniature Golf Course - Why not build your very own miniature golf course? These folks did. They built an 18-hole challenge consisting of nine hazards played in two directions. The "Down Under" course was constructed in their basement, using old toys, spare wood, and what looks like indoor-outdoor carpeting. After a few months their creation was destroyed "by random cat activity," but each hole is pictured and lovingly described as it appeared in its full glory. Now all you need is a scorecard and one of those little teeny pencils!
