New Zealand - Fox Glacier

Ladies and Gentlemen, presenting FOX GLACIER.
The only glacier in the world that is not affected by global warming and which is still growing. (Glacier is a frozen river. Check dictionary for a more precise definition)

We had a chilling good time there in Fox Glacier.
Everything about Fox Glacier was nice.
The temperature was nice and cool.
The people were nice, as usual.
The Helicopter ride up the snow capped mountain was nice. (Except the part where the pilot decided to do a sharp turn which made my stomach fold a bit, making me uncomfty)
The 5 minutes we spent up on the snow land was very nice.
The sun directly over our head, contrasting beautifully with the clear blue sky. Its ray reflected off the pure white snow. That was one defining moment that took my breath away.
It's a pity we only had 5 minutes which left us little time to soak up the wonder around us.

The only not-so-nice thing was the $200+ NZD we spent on the Heli ride. But in exchange for the experience it gave me, I tot it was completely worth every cent.


Despite the brief 5 minutes we had on top, CY found time to throw a snow ball at a photo-taking Bernard. And that was the only snow fight we had.
