Over ice

I'd need a lot of Bailey's to go with this baby.



It's estimated to be about 2km long by 1.5km wide and 100m high, contains enough fresh water to fill 1 million Olympic-size pools and is thought to be part of a bigger (167km long) iceberg that broke off Antartica in 2000. It's located about 260km below NZ in the Southern Ocean.

No wonder there's been hail in Invercargill and snow in and around Gore today.
