South island: Fox Glacier

People I was here with: Sarah, Saskia and Lina
After 8 hrs busdrive from Nelson and we finally arrived in beautiful Fox Glacier high up in mountains. 

Lina and I on our way to "The Mirror lake", while the two other girls did skydive.

Lake Matheson; real name of The Mirror lake

Here is the answer of that nickname. Unbelievable stunning, was like a postcard in front of us.

A growing fern. (The fern over here is tall as trees and it's a symbol of New Zealand)

Isn't she gorgeous?! haha my wonderful Lina


"Mirror mirror on the lake, who is the fairest of them all?..."


Well it's hard to smile on every picture

Lina and I are ready to walk on the glacier (in lots of rain!!) 
It's a melting glacier, which made us walk about 15 min until we could reach it. 





Following the guide

Nice glacier-exploring-outfit 

Check on the bucket list: lick on a glacier.


Most amazing thing, we were abel to crawl under and see this magnificent cave! 

The cave got lighten up from the outside thru the ice
                                                                                                                                                                   


On our way to Queenstown!

  1. Härliga bilder från ditt äventyr på sydön med dina vänner.
    Den ön får vi verkligen besöka någon gång.
    Vår tid räckte inte till för den ön också.
