Sitting in the rec halls bar Kala sipped on her Pina Colada it aromas wafting around the unjoined trill creating a tropical feel and her third for the night meaning she was rather enjoying the rum and coconut-based drink. For the past hour, she had been watching a young family of four play what people called ‘bowling’ she had never played or heard of it before but it seemed to involve rolling a heavy sphere down a long path toward 10 odd-shaped statues in the aim of knocking them down, though it appeared there were different variants of the game because the older woman had barriers which erected from the side of the stopping it going into the grooves on either side meaning she scored zero and the children used a device which they loaded the ball and pushed it down.

“An old earth game,” came the southern British accent of the first officer as he came into the hall, giving a nod. “Aim is to knock as many of them down as you can in one hit,” he added. He had gone bowling with his brother when they were younger, and it was still a hobby he enjoyed himself from time to time. “It’s been a few years since I last went to a bowling alley myself,” Simon said.
