This morning two trekkers were up bright and early to catch their flight to Popondetta with Airlines of PNG. They were taken to the airport by Raymond in Port Moresby and met by Ivan Semie at Girua airport and taken to Popondetta to wait for their ride up to Kokoda. After arriving at Kokoda Station, it was not soon and they were heading for Hoi Village where they have stopped for the night. Trekkers are as follows:
[*]William Tickner and his mate
[*]Adam HerbertThe group has now reached Hoi Village and according to Ivan, everything is ok and looking forward to their walk tomorrow.
This is our very first trek for 2015!

During the afternoon I received a message from Ivan our guide, to say it rained quite heavy yesterday but they were able to push on. Light rain today it seems. Trekkers are enjoying their trek and tonight find themselves at 1900 Campsite area. A big day tomorrow as they head for Menari!
