Turtle Mania

Our 7-year-old Kidsetter had been eagerly anticipating Conflict Island, Papua New Guinea.  He was looking forward to visiting the islands turtle sanctuary where we were able to hand feed the baby turtles.  Run by marine biologists, it was educational and fun, learning all the reasons why turtles are endangered today.  One of the biggest reasons […]

Kiriwina Island

Kiriwina Island is a beautiful island located in Papua New Guinea.  Beautiful beaches, white sand and light blue waters.  The people are friendly and primitive.  I was thrilled our Kidsetter was experiencing a community such as this.  We travel a lot and I have to say the last time I experienced this degree of primitiveness […]
