Hi Aussie,

You've done a good job with these photos, etc keep up the good work. I am a Morobe girl and have been out of the country for 18 years or so. I am so pleased this site was created as I have always been interested in the history of PNG in general and have lost track of time.

I hope to visit again one day.

Thanks Wendy from Cairns

For those of you who have never been to Lae before, you are warned that Lae Airport (Nazdab) is situated some 40 minutes drive outside of the city.

Therefore you will need to have some prior arrangements made for your travel requirements.

If you are booking into a hotel in Lae, ask reservations to organise a pick up and drop off at the airport on your behalf which is cheaper than buying a ticket once you arrive at Nazdab.

If you would prefer to be chauffeur driven, then please arrange this through Morobe Tours:

Reservations: +675 42 1071 or Fax: +675 42 5788
