I'm late posting today because we have a new baby in the house. I had forgotten how demanding they are!! She seems to have settled in very well........





......and just loves the beach. Her heritage is questionable and her final size and shape will be a surprise but she is adorable. The name is still under discussion. I'm pushing for Jessie but no decision has been made yet. Any ideas????

Our first hit of ash yesterday was a sign of things to come me thinks. The good thing was we have had quite good rain to wash it away last night. Hope it stays away for a bit longer.

Most vehicles in PNG run on diesel fuel. "Only recently, imported diesel in the Pacific has become more expensive than the net value of exported coconut oil, suddenly making coconut oil a serious commodity option for internal use as biofuel."


This biofuel operation in Rabaul is making fuel, in a small shed, for its company vehicles .

This article and this one are quite interesting if you'd like to know more.
