On Patrol: October 08-10

An amazing three-day trip to Wau. It was a drive from Goroka to Lae. First thing in the morning drive to Wau (about 3 hrs). I cannot get over the views. They are just amazing. From the higlands steep down to the Ramu Valley, towards the floodplains of Markham Valley to end up in Lae. The trip to Wau again has a different scenery with steep forest-cpvered mountains and amazing river views. The closer you get to Bulolo, the more people you see panning for gold.

I got in Wau at 09:00 and got all the work done. Factory visit, a meeting with about 200 farmers from the area, a mumu (earth ‘ oven’ )….and drive all the way back again. Overnight in Lae…and back to Goroka.

I should send some pics to microsoft….that default teletubby desktop landscape just cannot compete with the views on the Valley’s of PNG. I uploaded some pics again (album: portraits and a scenic shot).

Enjoy! JK
