The hotel does have an online connection, but it's dial-up. So, not much online presence by yours truly until next Sunday. But the important thing is the incredible amount of slopes available here; seriously, this is the hugest area for mountain skiing I've ever had the pleasure to ski in, and I'm something of an old hand. And all the slopes are covered with snow. After two months spent mostly locked up in rooms and working, this is just what I need.

...err, the area in question would be Corvara, in the Dolomites. So, second time in a few weeks I'm in Italy. Viva!

...also, if anything important happens during the week, pray add a link in a comment here!
