A new train has steamed its way in to the doors of the Senior Center.

No, it’s not your typical railway locomotive. It’s a fun and interactive game featuring those small rectangular domino tiles; better known as dominoes and the name of the game is Mexican Train.

A rather new addition to the Costa Mesa Senior Center, Wednesday’s from 1 to 4 p.m., you will likely bump into Guy Richards the class leader, Pat Bingo, Daisy Howard, Frances Sorensen, Margarete Stevenson and Robert Garlbraith to name a few, ready for a fun few hours of Mexican Train.

Daisy and Pat sit at a table together sharing smiles and laugher coupled with moments of intense concentration.

“You just stole my move, “ Daisy says with a laugh. “I’m fighting to get rid of my tiles.”

Mexican Train is an interactive game, encouraging the participants to use elements of strategy, critical thinking and development of a master plan in their moves. Usually the tables are full with the maximum four players at play, but this particular Wednesday, Oct., 21 there are only five players.

A fun-packed and thought-provoking game, Mexican train offers a quiet place with friends, analysis and evaluation coupled with laughter and smiles.
