Mahjong

I dun even touch the damn thing when I'm in Singapore, I guess I'm never as fast as the old-timers. But its become quite the novelty game here, well, at least Risa seems to be all for it. So much so that she has gotten someone to bring her back a set from Sydney. The tiles are much bigger than the pocket sized ones we were playing with initially. As its all for the fun of the game, there's never money involved and we never count the 'flowers'.
And if it includes lunch on the weekends as well, who am I to say no.
L to R: Odelia, Risa, Neil, Margaret and Joanna. All Taiwanese backpackers except Risa.Risa's got an interesting story. Japanese who met her Aussie partner as he was teaching English in Japan. Got married, went to Tassie where she opened a Sushi shop. Fell in love with Darwin when touring the country. Since then, they've just moved up here not to long ago and opened their second outlet here. Funny thing is, she's got to ask Patrick (her partner) how to make the sushi seasoning before he left for a month long trip but to Tassie. One thing about Japs, they've got a tool for everything.
