We're now two days into Unit 8! Yippee!! We are also busy with getting everything for our crate ready to go. We are very limited to what we can take on the plane to Papua, about half as much as we could take here from Canada so we are trying to get as much as possible into our container.
In the meantime, MAF has asked Hugo to go to Medan for a few days to see if he can figure out what is wrong with the compass system on the Cessna 208 they are flying there. He's pretty pumped about getting to go there and doubly pumped because he knows he'll be able to communicate with the folks out there!
For the rest, the dry season is upon us and the days are a lot hotter now than they were before although we did get a little sprinkle of rain late this afternoon.
We are now scheduled to leave around August 6th again. Our manager figured it would be better if we didn't fast-track our last unit after all. The reality is that our house in Sentani probably won't be ready by the end of July anyways.
For the moment we are all healthy and doing well! How about you?

Must be great to have a date to work towards. Enjoy the packing of crates ...again! (isn't that a bit of dejavu?) :-)

Have fun "working" again Hugo. You'll probably come back hoping to speed up your arrival in Papua.
Take care, Pearl
