Balibo

Is where I am today. Such very friendly people in Timor-Leste. Went to visit some of the locations in Balibo which you'd be familiar with if you've ever watched the movie, in particular the Portuguese fort from which the invasion was originally filmed by journalists.

Also visited the town square house where it's still possible even today more than 35 years later to see the word 'Australia' and the likeness of an Australian flag which was painted on its wall by journalist Greg Shackleton in October 1975.
