Day 257 - Sunka

Day 257

9/14/2010

Do you know how to play Sunka?

It is the Philippine version of a game that is played

in many countries from Africa to Asia.

The African version is called Mancala and marketed in toy stores.

This is a wonderful board I bought in Manila when I was there in 2002.

The shells I got in Bohol when I lived there.

Day 37 - Shell

2/6/2010

I am not sure of the scientific name of this lovely shell.

It comes from the central Philippines.

I had a hard time choosing the view I wanted to include in this project,

so I combined these three views using PhotoShop.

Day 35 - Shells

2/4/2010
This little shelf was built between the studs when we remodeled our kitchen/ main floor bathroom. I love showing off part of my Philippine shell collection here.
