Old Memories
Jan. 26th, 2023 10:23 pmWe've been watching a fair number of Magnum P.I. reruns when we have nothing new to watch (although there are a number of streaming shows available with new episodes; we just have trouble deciding that we actually want to watch them). In the episode we watched last night, I noticed a wooden object hanging on the wall of an apartment that Magnum and Higgins were searching and said to myself, "I know what that is."
I just didn't know what it was called. But it was the wooden game board essentially identical to one that we had owned when we lived on Guam, where the pits were filled up with shells and captured using some scheme that I had forgotten.
The Internet makes finding many things possible, so I have found the game that we played. And here is the link to it, for your edification: https://mancala.fandom.com/wiki/Sungka
