The first sunset after leaving Port Moresby.
I wanted to get some sort of a creature carved out of wood from Papua New Guinea; this was the smallest one available the day that we were able to go to the pier for a few minutes. One of the guests on USNS Mercy told me that she recognized the pattern, that it was carved near the Sepik river in the northwest part of the country, and that it takes about two weeks to carve one of these crocodiles. I think I will name it Wewak, after a town that lies along the Sepik river.
From left to right, LTCDR Kluegel (the Director for Administration), LT Simerman (head of the Operations Department), and LT Seaman (Chief Information Officer) return to USNS Mercy aboard a Band-Aid boat from a visit to the pier in Port Moresby.
This double rainbow was so close to USNS Mercy that I could only catch half of it in the camera, on a rainy morning near Port Moresby.
Just after sunrise on a rainy day, a ship sails past the outskirts of Port Moresby.
Here's another photo of Shell, with Port Moresby and a large container ship in the background.
