Packed and ready to go - Miriam is eating cereal and the last of the pineapple out of plastic bowls, the trash is emptied. The house is more or less devoid of our stuff.
Today's trip is from Mount Hagen to Port Moresby, and then Port Moresby to Brisbane. We'll have a few hours in Moresby before facing Australian customs with our woven baskets (sprayed with bug spray, frozen for at least 24 hours, and banged on the table to remove bugs) and miscellaneous other New Guinean souvenirs. And then we'll be spending the next four nights in Scarborough, just north of Brisbane. We have a busy few days booked there.
I meant to write something about leaving yesterday, but I was so exhausted by packing all day that it never got done. Perhaps it will still come, eventually. It's been bittersweet the last few days.
