The Sauna of DEATH

We thought we had struck gold when we saw that the hostel in Franz Josef Glacier had its very own sauna. Dan was still feeling a bit under the weather from his cold, so we thought a half hour in a sauna would be just what the doctor ordered.

It was, sort of.

Unfortunately, the sauna was so hot that it caused some sort of a thermal reaction in the high-index plastic lenses in Dan's glasses. They became ever so slightly cloudy, and now Dan can't understand why New Zealand seems to have taken on a heavenly haze.
