Dice Town |
Kevin Caron
|
One of the few games at the HFG that use cups for rolling dice ... the other well-known one being next. Kevin wins with 35 points. |

Perudo |
Ian Stewart
|
A valiant fight by Kevin whose only dice left was facing four of Ian's in the final face-off. He brought it down to a one-on-one last throw, but Ian finally prevailed. |

Oh yes, it's Ian's night, and the feelin's right; oh yes it's Ian's night, oh what a night! |

Pascal Werlberger

5 squares left for Pascal; that's how quickly all the other players ended up in the same corner, eliminating each other. |

PSAM. Happy birthday Mike (yesterday)! To celebrate, Irina makes a delicious lemon torte which we devour. Then we play a newish game (Alain has never played it, Stephan and Mike have played it a few times quite a while ago, and Pascal is an old hand at the 2-player version of it).

Grand Austria Hotel |
Pascal Werlberger
|
Pascal trails in last place for most of the game, but he scores two major objectives late in the game (the only player to reach all three objectives) and that's enough to pass Stephan and beat him by 13 points, with a total of 157. |

MIS. What was supposed to be a special meeting at Kevin's place to celebrate his birthday ends up being a meeting at Stephan's with only three cats present because of covid alerts within the others' families. Happy birthday Kevin anyway!
