Greenpeace's Rainbow Warrior came to Papua! They weren't protesting, but promoting the beauty of Papua's vast wilderness and the importance of protecting it. Guin's sister Thom and Nic's friend Val, whom we had met in Sydney, was part of the crew and gave us a tour. Cool thing was, cousins Otto and Esther had just been on the very same ship in Sydney a few days before. A strange sensation, having this sudden connection with, but still being so very far from, our family.
Current forest (top) and proposed logging (bottom). Ouch!
