Re – Antony Zahra: Wayne, Hobert and Antony are now at 1900/Myola Junction having left Naduri around 11am this morning. Antony is still putting in a gutsy effort and has people all along the track talking about him. I have a two way radio in my office and several times today I have heard messages being passed around as to whether they have sighted…[Read more]

Both treks have now reached Isurava Village where they are spending the night in readiness to walk off the track into Kokoda around midday to 1:30 pm tomorrow.

Pat called up to say they were all ok and doing well but thinking a lot about Antony Zahara coming up the rear of them that due to time restraints they were forced to leave behind.

I spoke to Antony Zahra at Menari yesterday. I asked him how he was and his reply was 'pain is a state of the mind'. This was after I had spoken to Wayne who was telling me he has blisters; been vomiting, you name it….but….he is not giving up. He wants to keep going to the half way point of Efogi this afternoon. In PNG the term used is 'hard…[Read more]

The plan today is to reach Eora Creek. I also…[Read more]

Our troopy was not bogged just could not get past the 4WDrive bus stuck on the hill. The driver of the bus parked, reversed, tried again, parked reversed,…[Read more]
