2 days at sea with about 1600 others. Lots to keep us busy and happy!
Visited cultural festival Alotau,
Milne Bay memorial to those killed in WW2
Kitava - too rough for tenders
Rabaul - tour to coconut oil factory, hot springs. Rabaul was the provincial capital and most important settlement in the province until it was destroyed in 1994 by falling ash of a volcanic eruption.
Kiriwina - largest of the Trobriand Islands. Lots of market stalls and dancing, plus a very different type of cricket match! A couple of local lads from different villages decided to fight over a lady, so machetes and blood sent people running in all directions …
Conflict island - owned by Australian as a resort for cruise ships to visit. Sun, swim, snorkel.
2 days back to Brisbane
