Title – World War II Bomber
Date – August 2001
Location - Rabaul - Papua New Guinea
The Second World War left much of the Pacific region littered with debris, artillery, crashed planes and munitions. There can be no stranger sight then walking along and finding a WWII Bomber lying at the side of the road, after 60 years almost untouched and half buried in the ash that fell after several eruptions from the local volcano.
The west went out to the Pacific to fight a war and when it left, life just went back to normal in the islands or as close to normal as can be expected after the damage done to the region and its people.
At Beyond The Blue we realise that when we travel to another country, it should be a positive experience both for the traveller and for the host country. Understanding the environment and culture of your host country can help you enjoy your trip and leave a positive experience behind with the locals. Our Gap Year and Independent Travel Safety & Awareness workshop helps you to prepare for your travels and gives you the tools to make a positive contribution.
