    The food selection was fairly simple in hotels like this. There were no really fancy dishes, but you could get the standard 'western' fare including bacon & egg breakfasts. The big verandah-like seating area had the standard bar, serving up ice-cold San Miguel or Pacific beers. Those always went down well after a day sweating away in the Power Station!

    Note the buildings raised up on stilts. This was common practise in PNG to prevent them getting water-logged during the heavy rain season. Fencing placed around the stilts allowed this space to be used for livestock if necessary.

     Another of your exotic locations. I wouldn't mind seeing a banana or a palm tree outside my window either. We only have one (artificial) palm tree in the centre of Warsaw! No chance to taste the barracundi fish either.    		tiabunna Fri Jul 28, 2006 13:32 UTC
     Keep coming back for more of your 'out of the past and out of the way' pages, Glenn! PNG must have been fascinating in those days. The fresh barra must have been great too I reckon.

     I found the tip on the Sago Palm tree interesting. That's a whole lotta starch. The fresh perch sounds yummy.    		matcrazy1 Sun Jul 3, 2005 11:51 UTC
     Next interesting page... I wonder how things work there now. Are you going to revisit PNG? It would be fascinating to read your comparisons...
