Franz Josef Glacier

Hello out there!

I just arrived in Franz Josefs a couple of hours ago. I think the last time I posted something was on the North Island in Taupo. Well, I moved on to Tongorrio National Park and Wellington, the first with horrible weather conditions and lots of snow, the second one with sunshine and a lovley day with a girl in the park. Very relaxing. Then I hoped on a ferry to the South Island and started my journey around the middle island with a wine tasting before I carried on to the lovley Able Tasman, where I went sailing and walking around lonesome beaches.
After that came a stop in Berry Town, a village out in the middle of nowhere, but a very active nightlife. Today I finally arrived in the capital of tourism of New Zealand, the Franz Josef Glacier, named after an Austrian king (Sweet As) Tomorrow I will climb up that glacier and then kerry (the name of my current Busdriver) on to Haste for a Bonfire on the Beach and BBQ!

Well, my next update should be published in Queenstown - hope you are all having a great time!
