Milford Sound was lauded in one poster as "The Sound of Silence". While it is an incredible place, unique, beautiful, drastic, awe-inspiring, it is not really the sound of silence. At least not any more. There are planes and helicopters droning overhead, boats swarming the water honking, car engines right and left. But it does provide for some good photo ops.

It's fun reading your blog, it makes it all come back for me. Seems like such a long time ago.
