(1582) ROUND 4 OF 2018 WCO (Sept. 27, 2018) -- LIBERIA OPEN TEAM SWEPT PALAU; ANGIE AVERTED A SWEEP, SCORED 2nd WIN vs. BAHAMAS

RD. 4: 2018 WCO- Liberia Swept Palau;

Angie Averted a Sweep by Bahamas

Bahamas Women's Team Captain Elton Joseph liked my gift of business card, face towel with short note about teachers and the brochure of Palau Royal Resort. I noticed that he has a small camera. My small camera, which I bought during the last few hours in Manila before the long flight to Istanbul and Batumi, was not allowed inside the playing area. In Baku, Azerbaijan WCO in 2016, it was in the late part of the Olympiad that we learned that small camera is allowed. I noticed also that there is a Team Captain of a Women team that says. "I will go back to the security area and will tell people there that I am a team captain to be allowed to bring camera.

We asked also Mr. Elton Joseph to take photos with 4 members of the Palau Women Team for a photo session with WCM Phiona of Uganda where her life was made a film in Disney movie "Queen of Katwe" that I have seen for the first time during the long (12 hours trip) from Manila to Istanbul at the Turkish Airlines.
