"Then I'll be in the officer's mess, Mr. Black.  Carry on."  He followed the admiral to the messhall.

"Yes, sir."

After the brass left, Black sat back down in the 'big chair'.  "So, anyone got any plans for when we reach Spacedock?", Black asked looking to start some interesting conversations while the brass were gone.

"Well, I have a couple of siblings stationed in the Sol System.  I am hoping that we might be able to arrange a family get together," replied Ariel at the Tactical Station.  "Whenever we can, we try to meet in old Quebec City, where we grew up for some good old cannuck food."

"That sounds like a good plan.  I hope to spend some time in Annapolis.  This time of year they have a dish that I haven't had in several years, soft shell crab.  It's the best."

Ariel could not help but feel a bit hungry at his description.  "I have never been to Annapolis. I hear it is supposed to be a beautiful part of North America."

"Yes it is.  Right off one of the many fingers of the Chesapeake Bay.  It was a good place for shipping, in it's early days, and for harvesting the bounty of the Bay.  It even was home to the naval academy for one of Terra's super powers.  Besides, it is a nice quiet town to enjoy a good cup of joe or a brew or a tasty seafood tidbit."  Donovan's love of the place was clearly evident in the way in which he spoke.  It was almost as if he knew of no other home but there.

"Maybe I will have to make time to stop by there while we are in the area.  I am always open to visiting new places."
