My daughter and I are spending Christmas in Goroka, a place which is special to me, given my family's ties to this place since the 1960s.
|
Christmas at St John's Lutheran Church, West Goroka. My ties with this church go back to as far as 1975 as a child growing up here. My wife and I were also congregation members when we were here. My first son was baptised here. |

Taking my daughter for an evening walk at West Goroka...like I used to do with her mother...The Land of Eternal Spring... |
|
This is the house at Rotary Park, West Goroka, where my wife and I lived in 1999 and 2000...so many memories...big house, three bedrooms, huge yard with garden, round house at the back...and just the two of us on those cold Goroka nights... |

My daughter at the gate of the house at West Goroka we lived in 1975, 1976 and 1977...the Australian-built house is still standing, like many others in Goroka...

A lovely evening in West Goroka. |
|
Cold misty morning...and I know I'm back in Goroka... |
|
Rotary Park, West Goroka...still there after all these years... |
|
Christmas greetings from Goroka to all my family and friends...one thing I love about this place is the beautiful flowers... |
More pictures to come...
