House update 3

The carpenters are back and now working full time on the house. Since my last update, there was a skeleton of beams running with the roof half done. The roofs now complete with all floors covering as well as window frames done. The sealing buttons all complete with wiring soon to take place before the walls go up. Recently the pest control did a thorough spray on all timbers and that should keep the past out for a while. Find attached is the pest control guys spraying the house. Keep checking for more updates..

Spending the final day of 2010 at Gavuone village (31st Dec 2010)

We had the privilege of going down to Kimmy’s mums village thanks to Varokou Construction Ltd. Kim’s dad lent us a truck for the trip. We overnight and had a little anniversary kaikai for the lapun called Kariko who had in one stage had a hand in her mother’s upbringing. Though it was a new experience maybe the culture shock but looking at one issue is land and this is common amongst a lot of areas in Papua New Guinea.

At Koukou with Bubu

Looking at bubu, shes as strong for somene in her 80s. Though she can’t walk these days, she still is mobile crawlling along the house from her bedroom to the living room. She even can move up and down the 15 step house that she is living in. Coming to know her over the past couple of days is a privillage. Getting to know her background and know how and why koukou is where she originates from. Picture is (Kim and Jeremiah with bubu)
