Just realised that you need to scroll down to the bottom to read BLOG from Queensland!! We're both fine and trying not to let it irritate us. Been for a very long walk along the esplanade and now off to lunch. It looks as if we're no further forward for Angioplast on Thursday but the surgeon called Ken yesterday and said he'd get his girls on to it and find a spot for him on Thursday's list! He has seen all Ken's papers and said it was very straighforward and he'...

As you can see I have no photos as I didn't bring the laptop and have no means of emptying my camera with the pictures taken here so far. Am working on it! Ken has been so well and today on ourtravelling he has walked up steps from seeing waterfalls [not very exciting as the dry season is just ending] and he hasn't been out of breathe once. The only blot on the horizan is that when the VSO nurse called us she said that it may be decided that he has to finish an...

So an early dinner tonight before Ken has to fast. Yesterday we went up the coast and saw some great beaches all empty a...

Unfortnuately the apartments are fully booked for three or four days so they are moving me out to who knows where. Will try Internet permitting to fill in the gaps but system isn't happy with me so far!! My travel to Moresby to meet up with Ken was bizarre and the flight at 11:30am took off at 9:30pm! Unh...

So we are in cairns and I have lost the BLOG I have written for the second time!! Can't write it all again but we've gone through quite a two week saga! Ken had chest pains firts in Kathmandu but omitted to tell me until on the plane. Then in Kundiawa so we thought it was the altitude. He'd already seen the Dr after Kathmandu so a stress test had been booked but then we ended up in the local hospital on the Monday night before he was due to fly on the Wednesday....
