MemberHi Chris!
Photos are fab. Some look rough and exciting and others are rather powerful and emotional.
Are there leeches? Looks a bit like it.
We are all gathering down at the beach next week for a big nosh-up for Tiffy's birthday. You can tell us all about your adventure and we expect lots of photos, true stories and some exaggerated stories.
……enjoy this life experience.
See you soon!

MemberUpdate 11th July: Hi everyone, trek 488 is now in our camp in Kokoda having walked off the track around 3pm today so CONGRATULATIONS is in order for each and everyone of them.
Laurie said to pass on his message that they are all ok.
Tomorrow they will come back in to Port Moresby in two different aircraft. The first aircraft leaves around 7am tomorrow morning and weather permitting should be back here around 9am. The next aircraft does not leave until 13:30 so should be back around 2:45pm to pick up the remaining passengers.

MemberUpdate 12th July: All trekkers are now back in Port Moresby and relaxing at the Comfort Inn.
As for David their guide, well he is on his way back to Owers' Corner for his trek commencing tomorrow and believe it or not, he is looking forward to his next trek.
Laurie looked a little stiff but all others looked like they could have kept going another 96 km !!!
Kim arrived back wearing a t/shirt with butterflies all over it and stated Freddy said she had to wear it back to Port Moresby.
One of Laurie's comments……going back to get my kneed right then coming back again next year.
