An Australian volunteer who was doing whatever volunteers do in PNG.
I was there for 2 years until Dec 2005 .. I hope I made the most of it.

Wet, Wet, Wet



Still in the wet season. After a few relatively dry weeks, the rain is back on in earnest. I usually take a shortcut to the office and cross this ditch and go through some backyards, but when it rains I would need to be Carl Lewis to cross it. The water lying there is over a metre deep.

With the rain is the cold - relatively speaking of course. Usually blankets are not needed in this tropical clime, but at the moment I have been snuggling up under one and remembering that cold nights are not so bad. Certainly beats sweating all night anyway.
