After Long Last...PICTURES!

In no particular order...mainly scenes from Akaroa, Punakaki and my fave, Franz Josef:

in an ice creavasse

descending the glacier (was NOT easy)

the beginning of the minihaha forest walk

view of the valley from the glacier

dad the conquerer

Karen and I in an ice crevasse

Surge pool at Punakaki

Glacial peaks on Franz Josef

The Brotzman Trio

Pancake rocks...mmm Pancakes

climbing up the glacier

view of mountains from the Cheaky Kea

a misty afternoon in Punakaki

the Franz Josef glacier (that we climbed!!!)

Karen in a blue ice cave

a cloudy day near Punakaki

overlooking the valley down towards Akaroa

the goat/deer thing that almost ate me

the Weka that actually managed to taste me

a blowhole within the pancake rocks of Punakaki

That seems like enough pictures for now. There are many more to come...views of the waterfalls of Haast, our trip up to Kaikoura, and my trip with Craig a few weeks later. Until then, enjoy!
