Christchurch to Franz Josef via Arthurs Pass
Today we are heading for Franz Josef. Scary road in some places.
Really not too much to say other than some great scenery. We were driving past one town where I had to do a double take and check out what we were seeing - a goat following it's owner to the local shop.
Lunch at Arthurs Pass and then on again. We got to Franz Josef and found our accomodation. We were about 5 kms from the carpark to do the glacier walk. We drove out to the car park just to see what walks were available. We think a lot of people walked out there, did the glacier walk and then realised it way a long way back to town. We saw one couple and offered them a lift, they were surprised but grateful. That night we just had something to eat in our room. Hopefully a good nights sleep and we will go to the glacier tommorrow.
