The end of our journey! Both of these cities were basically stop overs until we got to Invercargill. Greymouth is a small town, but we were staying right on the beach so that was so nice. We went and watched the sunset over the beach. The next day we drove 9 hours to drive to Cromwell.
On the way to Cromwell we stopped at the Franz-Joseph Glacier and Fox Glacier. They are both neat glaciers that are tucked away in between two mountains.

Me and a piece of the glacier!
Fox GlacierAfter we saw the glaciers we stopped in this practically non existent town called Haast for dinner. We all got fish and chips which was made with whitebait fish and really delicious. The bad thing about Haast however is this disgusting little things called sand flies. They are tiny little black flies that bite quite viciously. They actually draw blood and leave you bleeding a little bit when they bite you and then they start to itch! And if you itch them at all they last for weeks before they finally go away and stop itching. They are some of the most horrible bugs I've ever had the displeasure of meeting.
