Gimpel and Gumby to Papua New Guinea. That was our handles when we were younger, but it became 'going to png' We lived there for over 12 years and are back in the U.S. now adapting to live and viewing life through a much different lens. I rarely update my blog because I tend to be too long winded and I frankly don't know who wants to read this stuff anyway. I'm not sure if my thoughts help the world, but I'm putting it out there just in case it does.

3g!
We have 3g available now! Unfortunately our five bars of cell reception dropped to a random 2 bars to no signal at all since the upgrade.
Digicel PNG has upgraded the towers so now, we have 3g data, which is much faster than the EDGE.
7 years ago there was no Cell reception here.
4 years ago everyone had a cell phone, and you could get reception in 1 location at the top of the hill
3 years ago they installed a new tower, and you could get good reception and EDGE network speeds
today you can get 3g, but reception is poor (has been for 3 weeks now) and we're hoping it is temporary.
I predict in a few years time, we'll be almost caught up to U.S.A. circa 2001!
