Tueday, March 20: Franz Josef

I woke up with a massively sour throat, which is still nagging me. Hopefully it'll be gone by tomorrow.

We did the 3/4 day tour of Franz Josef Glacier. This is the only glacier in the world that actually grows and it does so at a very rapid pace (a few meters a year as I recall). We got crampons and walked on the glacier, which was very nice and rather tiring. Zion wanted to have one of those pictures where he is naked on the ice. So off he and Arik went for the photo opportunity. I stayed put for lunch.. As it turns out, when he was all naked, the other group passed by. He couldn't do anything but laugh, and they, however, where very shocked...

Upon our retturn to Franz Josef, we decided that we'll make Shakshuka for dinner. It turned out great except for Zion having been heavy handed on the pepper, which resulted in a rather spicy shakshuka. Next time, I'll assume charge of anything that's spicy...
