Highlands Highway

There's no real need to take security along the highway up to Goroka or even Hagen.

From Lae to Kasam is safe, just keep your wits about you from Yonki to Goroka.

The Bird

I eat at the Bird probably every 6 - 8 weeks, rarely had a bad meal....

It's either eat there, the chinese across the road or at the Pacific mess so you are not spoilt for choice.

Finschhafen?

There was a big American WWII strip at a place (now) called Nugidu (I think) near Maneba wharf. It had some bitumen still on it but was completely overgrown when I last saw it in 2000.

Derim

Last time I was there in mid-2000 there was a very well stocked trade store, free hydro power, hot water and a pool hall!

I didn't want to leave!
