New Zealand: Franz Josef & Fox Glacier - Ice ice baby!

Franz Josef and Fox Glacier are the famous glacier that you should really go when you visit NZ.

But you know what, i'm not going, i just view both glaciers from far away, because i was with Alice and Dino, and they're not manage to complete the 8 hours walks.

I hope i have the chance to complete another 8 hours walks after my Tongariro Crossing in north island. But i know my parent will just kill me, i play with my life too much.

Anyway if you think 8 hours are really killing you, you can take helicopter and fly to the top of the glacier, save your time but spent big bucks.

The fantastic view up the glacier is really stunning, google the photo and will make you wanna go up there and seen the view by your eyes.

Photo below taken from far away, not good photos coz the weather was bad that day, showering but never stop me to complete the short walk for 2 hours.

Fox Glacier just the next town of Franz Josef, like half hour driving distance, some people were saying fox glacier is nicer than fox glacier, but i think both are amazing.

Was plan to take 2 hours walk in lake Matheson, the mirror lake nearby, but was showering. Another regret in the journey.

But thankful coz Dino and Alice brought me along to their trip =)

Well next post, Blenheiem Malaysian gathering!
