... been two winter Olympics and one youth winter Olympics held here. Apparently you can ski all year round thanks to a glacier on one of the mountains. Next we headed into the Old Town streets. The Christmas markets had recently started so we browsed the stalls selling all sorts of produce, Christmas trinkets and most importantly for the locals, hot wines and punches...
