Fox Glacier

dengan semangat abe Henry Golding, i shall finish my NZ trip. weeeeeeeee.
juga amik seru sempena pengembaraan tahun baru weeeeeeeeee.
ok i make myself excited.

where did i stop?

ok we made a pit stop at Greymouth, picked up our rented car and headed to a place called Fox Glacier, which is famously known for its glacier.
which is also a gloomy place. mungkin sebab dia berada di lembah2.
which you can hike glacier at anytime of the year (even summer!). mungkin sebab dia berada di lembah2.
which is raining almost every morning. mungkin sebab dia berada di lembah2.
i am saying it repeatedly because i want you to get the idea of how wet and gloomy the place is.

it took us almost 3hours of driving. time ni lalu hutan2 saje. macam tiada bezanya dgn balik kelantan. haha.

we also tried going to Lake Matheson, or better known as Mirror Lake tapi tahu2 sajalah we and time are not best of buddies masa dekat sana.
but lakes as such dkt South Island are countless, so dont get frustrated if you dont get to see the glamer one okeys.

we rented a room with minimal charges, and there are 3beds and tv!
aaah such luxury doesnt come often. we cooked our own meals. jalan2 bandar yang tejuk2.
our next day adventure was, well waddayaexpect, mesti lah hike up the glacier!

and yes, i am now all excited.  

next post is glacier hiking :) :)
