They took a stroll around the transport ship which was taking them to their
cruise ship on Vulcan. It was fairly standard issue, not too interesting,
and most of the passengers were either families or businessmen. They
visited the cafeteria (neither were hungry,) watched some of a pick-up
volleyball game on the recreational levels, admired the on-board arboretum
(unusual for a transport,) and managed to get onto three levels of "crew
only" decks - for fun - until an irate engineer figured out they weren't
supposed to be there and ushered them out huffily. After that, they went to
the bookstore to see if there were any new titles out worth reading...
Garibaldi picked up a few magazines. He needed some light reading, and magazines were
just the ticket. One was a wild life mag- Galactic Geographic, and the other was Wine
Spectator.
They were able to scrounge up a table, and something to drink, where there was a
wonderful view of the women folk. There Gariabldi taught the young doctor the wonders
of a card came called pitch. Garibaldi could play for hours, and he was a good
teacher. It did not take long for Lucas to catch on to the rules, and in a short time
after that he had actually beaten the old man a few times....
Eventually their ship made it to Vulcan and they disembarked into the hot,
dry atmosphere of Vulcan. "I think the shuttles to our ship are leaving
from terminal Delta, Admiral," Lucas said, "Do you have any business to
conduct before going there?"
"Me, no. I have never liked Vulcan all that much. Too dry for my taste. Growing up
on an island in the Mediterranean does that to you. However, if you know of something
that I may have missed in my past haste to bug out, I am more than willing to give it
a go."
