Pokémon, Yu-gi-oh… whatever the last ones are from.

The flat tires are from Miles Borne.

Elrond is a Lord of the Rings character, and swamps are a kind of land in Magic the Gathering.

That was the goal of the game, to reach a thousand miles by playing various distance cards.

I remember Go fish,how long ago some 55 years ago i think.

The American counterpart to Mille Bornes was “Touring”.

Gosh, how nice to see kids playing cards!

Wow, a Millebournes reference at the end. I’d forgotten that game existed.

Go Fish is a great way to sort the decks. At the end of the game the cards will be sorted into piles by number or name.

Today I’m going to play Go Fish, but I will be in my boat , on the Lake…

What? no UNO??

No decks like this in our home…

That explains a lot.

Oui, Monsieur!I love that game. We don’t play it as often any more, since my grandparents passed away. Used to be them, my folks, me and my brother playing at least twice a week. I still have the card set and tray.

The swamp cards are probably from Magic:The Gathering.

I miss Yu-Gi-Oh! My deck is very beat up because I played so much, but I haven’t played in several years.
