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
over an area called Ela Beach, that looks out to sea
|

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 |

... again |
At low tide

August |
And high tide

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 |
