Brisbane airport at 7.30am getting ready to book in. Most of the group have been training together for weeks. For the rest of us this is the first time we met. 

After arriving in Port Moresby we booked in at the Crown Plaza for the night. We then had a trip briefing and repacked our rucksacks. Dinner and then to bed early as we have to meet up in the foyer at 3.15am. 

So what did we pack?  Below is the suggested list and I have to say in the main I followed it.
