>The South Island is a different story. There are mountains and ski slopes galore. At the very southern tip is Milford Sound, the most beautiful place I have ever been.

I once cooked up this dialog:

- I want to be Moscow.

- You can't be a place!

- It would be just for a day.

- Still impossible. And, besides, why?

- So one day I can say "Moscow is a place I've been".
