We did our 8 hour glacier hike today - amazing! The scenary was stunning and you don't realise how long you are walking for. It was quite hard work at first but you soon get used to it. We were provided with some very fetching outfits and had to wear proper walking boots with crampons (spikes that stick into the ice). Walked through some amazing crevices and hiked up some pretty steep slopes - it was quite full on! Check out the pics!!
Staying one more night in Franz Josef tonight before we head off to Wanaka in the morning. Franz Josef is gorgeous, the scenary is stunning, surrounded by mountains and of course views of the glacier. We are both looking forward to Wanaka, apparantely we stay in a nice hostel with en-suite bathrooms which will be quite a treat!
