The Skull Caves of Milne Bay

Good Old Chinwagging Posted on 11 August 2012 by Chinwagger2 April 2018

At the corner of the dogleg is a pile of cast off old skulls. I do not remember seeing human’s skulls before, especially like this. Just in a haphazard heap they had a grey clay sort of look to them, the view was awe-inspiring.

Dingos in the campground

Good Old Chinwagging Posted on 27 August 2007 by Chinwagger21 December 2017

I have to put a final word in on the German Cyclist if anybody has followed his story. I like to report happy endings and I think this is a happy ending.
