[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Whatever game these guys are playing it certainly has attracted the interest of several on-lookers. If anybody out there knows what game is being played here, please let me know. Is it Chinese Checkers? A form of the Japanese game of "Go" maybe?

Related story: The day I flew out of Beijing to return to the USA was my 50th birthday. The JAL flight departed Beijing at about 8 a.m. on my birthday Saturday, May 15 and the connecting flight from Tokyo to Los Angeles left in the mid afternoon on that same day. It was an overnight flight and when I landed in Los Angeles at 10 a.m. it was again May 15 and again the morning of my 50th birthday so not only did I turn 50 twice but I had a 3-day weekend....2 Saturdays and a Sunday.

Hi Gregory !
No matter which game it is, but how interested and concerned those guys are!
Games are different, people speak differntly, but essentialy, intrinsically, they are the SAME all over the world !
A nice flagrante! I liked it!
Greetings from Recife-Brazil,
Nivaldo.
