Ten Pin Bowling

Last Friday, all the boys in for the evening had a night of Ten Pin Bowling.  At 5:30 pm, we ascended down the hill to McMahons Point to catch a ferry to Pyrmont Bay.  The walk down was quite nice and was only 15 minutes from School.  The ferry arrived and we all got on.  The departure from the terminal was spectacular, driving right past the harbour bridge in full view.  The rest of the journey was great, we went past Barangaroo and watched the new crown casino being built.  When we arrived at our stop, we jumped off and headed inside to get dinner.  The options for dinner ranged from Maccas to salads.  We all got dinner and ate it in the food court, waiting for our time to go bowling.  When 6:50pm rolled around, we headed upstairs to the bowling alley and waited for our lanes to open up.  After that, the fun started with the action starting strait away.  We had 2 hours of bowling with Angus Coleman coming out on top with the best score.  We bowled to about 9:00 then headed back to the ferry.  Only to our disappointment, they had locked the gates.  We ended up catching the Light Rail to Central.  We then had to switch trains and got back on the right one which took us back to North Sydney.  Overall the trip was fun and I would certainly do it again.
