Stopped overnight at Franz and visited the Glaciers.
I didn't take my camera to Franz but had fun at Fox Glacier.
This Glacier is more accessible even tho they have retreated hundreds of meters recently.
The Glacier valley is awe inspiring with the towering cliffs and Huge boulders.
Then the Glacier is magnificient.
The area at the face of the glacier is closed, but you get a great view from up beside it.
Can you see the idiot tourist down in the no-go zone.
Mind you he was helpful in giving us an idea of scale.
The melting water is milky coloured this close to the glacier.
This shot gives an idea of the scale of this magnificent valley .
It was a glorious spring day and only a few tourists around :)
