Once Travis showed up we kicked off with
Modern Art. Luke, Travis and I hadn't played this game in a long time and Jess and Moira hadn't played at all, so I did a quick rules refresh. Travis and The Man in Black (Jess) had a bit of a thing going pushing art to each other, though Travis thought I was lead member of the Luke Guyton benefit society for my fixed price auction of a pair of ChristinP's (one of which was Travis's).

Meanwhile the others arrived and decided on
Oasis which Anne taught. Anna obviously "got" this game, hogging the multipliers.

Modern Art was followed by
Expedition, where the yellow trip circumnavigated the globe in record time before plunging down the Atlantic to Antarctica and back up the other side of South America, to eventually run out (though the last couple of arrows where removed and repositioned a few times!)

The other table meanwhile went pirating with
Seerobber, where Nigel showed everyone how to be a pirate king.

Luke, Jessie and I had a quick 3 player game of
TransEuropa after Travis left. I didn't see any point in leaving the train shed. Luke building to my cities twice (Glasgow and Oslo), while Jess doing it once (Zurick) undoubtedly helped.
