Helicopters and Glaciers

Well we couldn’t go to Franz Josef without experiencing the glaciers. Me and Matt were up for this despite Matt being scared of the helicopter ride. Well organised with guide, walking gear water proofs. The helicopter was a six seater. Matt loved it.

In flight was only 7 mins but it hugged the terrain!

Then put us down on top of the glacier.

Eventually we arrived at a newly formed ice-cave

Which we squeezed through(well I squeezed through) to the other side.
