Intercultural exchange

intercultural - interaction in 1976 - Tari/SH/PNG

... about 1975 ...

we play on oneside -

-while others watch

looks like colonial times ...

life line - twinotter - on a dirt airstrip

now this is where I knew for sure that I was far away from home - the twin-otter lands once a week - brings goods - people crowd around the plane - some load, some pay, some watch and many stay .... come back when it returns a week later ... the roads a closed in rainly season and so this is their life line!

we used to race over these bridges ... and this time i crawled - over it in fear and trembling!
