Fox Glacier

---

Day 15 - Sunday - Travelled all day and travelled through Arthurs Pass where Tim took some photos of a Kia Parrot. Arrived in Fox Glacier where we went for a walk up to the Fox Glacier - it was huge. We had arrived late and since its the middle of winter there wasn't much open in this little place. We had tea in the hotels restaurant before having an early night! We seem to be getting up each morning at 6.30am!

Day 16 - Monday - Fantastic day! We got up and had our breakfast early as we were going on a helicopter! We were all excited as we flew up the Franz Glacier right up to the top and landed! We crunched in the snow and had a snowball fight. Dad took some photos. Then we went back in the helicopter and flew back down past the Fox Glacier. It was really good.
Later on we got off the bus for a boat trip on a jet boat along the Haast river. The driver did lots of spins! He went really fast and we got out half way to have a look around. Back on the bus again.... We stopped at a place for real fruit ice cream before arriving in Queenstown.
