Franz Josef Glacier

Arrived in NZ yesterday afternoon, yay! Am pumped and ready for a riveting adventure holiday! I even bought a $425 Pentax Optio S6 Digital Camera (which I totally can't afford! But just checked on Staticice and I got a good price, cheapest on there is $445, better hope so being duty free) to capture all the moments. So prepare yourselves for some amazing pics coming up soon.

Spent all yesterday driving to Franz Josef Glacier which is apparently the WORLDS STEEPEST commercially climbed glacer and one of only 3 glaciers that meet rainforest. That's right, I climbed it! I have a certificate and everything. Got a few happy snaps of me conquering it like the legend that I am as well ;)

Yeah, it was pretty spectacular, really steep and suprisingly blue and not all that cold! Had to get decked out in stinky sweaty climbing gear but you get over that pretty quickly. I'll throw some pics up of me pimped out in my glacier gear once I have them.


Chino has put a few pics up of the NZ holiday, there are some Franz Joseph Glacier ones up there, unlike some (idiot!) he didn't forget to bring the battery for his camera.

Noel also has some pics up.
