NZ Day 7: Franz Josef Glacier

After so much of consideration - to take the Glacier Hike or to take Glacier Ride. 
We finally opt for Glacier Ride as my health condition was not in an excellent condition.
We were worry that I'm unable to enjoy the 3 to 4 hour hike.
We booked the Glacier Ride with YHA Franz Josef.
We took the 20 minute Franz Josef & Fox Glacier ride which cost NZD270/pax.
It was indeed very expensive but a memorable experience :)
Preparing to on-board the helicopter.
View from the helicopter. Still green.
And here come the snow mountain. It took 5 minutes to go up.
Landing on between the peak of Franz Josef & Fox Glacier.
Yeah.
It is not as cold as I'd imagine up there.
We are allowed to spent 10 minutes ONLY on the ice before we head back down.
5 minutes ride down the snow mountain.
And NZD270 gone just like that.
How I wish we could earn money as fast as that too.
Nevertheless, this is a very great memorable experience!
No regret :)
