    Update 23rd September: Doug phoned up today from Kokoda and says they are all having a great time. Today they were all up at the Kokoda Hospital doing odd jobs.

    He mentioned that the showers were working at the camp and that it was luxury compared to others.

    During the weekend I was informed they went to the area where one of our porters come from and enjoyed a swim in their creek.

Looking foward to seeing you again. (If you get time can you please bring me back a present??wink.gif )

    Update 26th September: Today this group walked into Alola to meet with the other group of Kokoda Challenge trekkers walking from the opposite direction. They then all walked as one large group to Isurava Monument area where they will spend the night. All trekkers are doing ok with no problems it seems otherwise they would be contacting us.

    We had a group come back in today off the track and they said it rained pretty much every afternoon so I guess they will have experienced a bit of mud on the track.

    Perhaps some of them are taking the opportunity to wash their clothes, shoes and other items in our washing machine and tub set aside for this purpose.

    Update Sunday 28th September: Heard from Johllene and Doug today whilst at the Kokoda Primary School asking about the flights back to Kokoda tomorrow.

    There appeared to be a lot of excitement in the background so can only assume their games day went ahead as planned and that hopefully all enjoyed the day.

    Tomorrow, we have several flights organised to bring them back into Port Moresby. One Airlines of PNG flight and two Tropic Air flights all hopefully weather permitting, departing at 8am. One more Tropic Air charter will pick up the remaining 4 passengers.

    It the weather is kind to us, they should all be in Port Moresby before 10am.
