Bowling in Asmara

On my wanders around Asmara, I noticed a building with multi-coloured windows. On one side there's a big skittle and bowling ball, with a little sign with an arrow saying 'bowling'. 

This is what I found when I went inside. Bowling lanes.

This man has run the place for a very long time.

Nobody was bowling when I was there. That day, they preferred pool.
