Update 26th September: Last night trekkers spent the night at Eora Creek and today walked into Alola where they met the rest of the Kokoda Challenge team who walked up from Kokoda.

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.

Tonight they are spending the night camped together as a large group at Isurava. Tomorrow they will walk down to Kokoda and off the track.

Hey DJ

NOrm is here and sends his regards. You are off the track today so hopefully you will have had the time of your life. Can't wait till you are home and I can see that you are OK.

Norm is still worried about the pigmy hunters that eat children. I'm not sure you class as a child so you may be lucky. Then again maybe they have something or someone that eats inbetween children and adults. Wonder what they call them. I guess we'll have to wait for you to tell us.

Lil will be home today. Victoria is off with peter.

Harry was pretty impressed with you reading the ode. Nana has rang nearly every day to check and see how you are going.

Nat has sent some e-mails cause she couldn't work out how to get on the website.

Kalma is still jealous. She wants to play with you on the track but I told her about the sports day and so long as there are balls and sticks she'd prefer to play with the kids there. What do you reckon? Think she'd enjoy it? I do. MIght have a problem with customs bringing her back.

You're nearly home. Can't wait till Monday. Stay safe big guy. Love you heaps and I'm real proud of you.

Mum XXXXOOOO

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.
