Fox Glacier village, 25km south of Franz Josef, lies scattered over an outwash plain of the Fox and Cook rivers, and supports the local farming community, as well as sightseers. Everything of interest is beside SH6 or Cook Flat Road, which passes the scenic Lake Matheson on the way to the former gold settlement and seal colony at Gillespies Beach. The foot of the Fox glacier is around 6km away.

Air on Qantas has been purchased. Need to get IHA card. Make reservations. Greyhound, etc. LAX (overnight)-SYD then on to Brisbane (BNE). Hope to take Traveltrain in Queensland. Arrive BNE Aug. 7. Pre-trip News--I was disappointed to learn that I will NOT be able to upload photos from my brand new camera DIRECTLY to this website---SOOO I guess you all will have to wait to see my images from vacation. Once I can figure out how to do this I will start adding my own photos. I am almost all packed. A few more trips to stores to pick up stuff I forgot and then I am heading out in 2 days.
