Christmas in Port
Moresby doesn't feature the best decorations, but the main
roundabout in Town has a big Christmas tree |

Valley near Sogeri
(which is the beginning / end of the Kokoda trail) nearby Port
Moresby |
Looking back to Port Moresby |
Nice waterfall |
Experienced travelers will be
familiar with this concept |
There is a war
memorial near Sogeri as well, for the Commonwealth soldiers who died
in WWII |
About the cemetary |
Some of the 3,000+ graves |
Headed by a memorial |
Many graves are unmarked - an airman
... |
... or a solider, known unto God |
Some are known; almost all are young
men |
Neil's apt looks

January |
Overcast day in September |
Sunny day in October |
And it is scenic when |
there's a storm coming |
as there was this day in January |
I like the reflection of the clouds
on the water |
and the effect of 2 blue colors |

In March Neil went
to a Fiserv conference in Singapore along with some key BSP IT staff.
|
John Hogan (BSP consultant), Jed
Delker (Fiserv architect) & Bruce Carpenter (BSP consultant) |
Neil with John H, Jed, John Clay (BSP
senior core banking staff) & Bruce |
And the Ritz Carlton had a great room |
Singapore's new casino complex |
Not sure what this is near the casino |
The Singapore skyline is always
changing; seemingly for the better |
And after the
conference Neil visited friends in Kuala Lumpur, which has developed
in leaps & bounds since his first ever overseas assignment ... |
Apt buildings |
Shopping centers |
and great food |
