For the Easter long weekend. Gorgeous Man, Gorgeous Girl and I travelled to the Highlands of Papua New Guinea for a short break from the heat and humidity of Port Moresby.
It was very cold and I enjoyed it tremendously. We didn’t do a great deal as it rained quite frequently while we were there, but it was nice to relax, catch up on some reading, play card games and spend time together.
Gorgeous Man and Gorgeous Girl got up early one morning to do a bird-watching trip. I also spotted a rare bird while walking the grounds…
Just sitting quietly on a stump minding his own business.
In all seriousness though, we did see some fabulous native birds. There was the tiger parrot.
The lodge puts out fruit which attracts the birds and you can then watch from the balcony of the main building.
This is one of the birds of paradise.
Love the long tail on him.
We took a walk around the grounds and Gorgeous Girl borrowed my camera to take pictures of ever flower she saw. That was her stated aim… There were lots of really interesting flowers around and she got some really nice photos.
But don’t fret, I’m not going to show you all of them.
