Volcano few days ago
Photo above was taken a few days ago from near front of our house when volcano was quite active and pumping out some ash accompanied by sonic booms as it clears itself.
Shared some icecream with our housegirls kids, was a hot day.

On Friday the wind changed direction and ash is now blowing this way and across to the airport. Air Niugini was quite quick to respond and flights cancelled from Friday afternoon until further notice. Hope its open again by the time we want to head home for our Christmas break on December 12.
If the airport still closed then option either spend Christmas in Kokopo or take another route home. The best one seems to be by taking a 2 hour banana boat ride from Kokopo across to Namatani and then catch PMV (public transport) for 4 hour trip up to Kavieng and then fly to Port Moresby from there. Wait and see what happens.
No diving this weekend, had huge storm last night with lots of rain so would have reduced the clarity of the water.
Looks like the wet season has arrived.
