Courmayeur!

Having passed through three countries, we arrived in Italy and the most pittoresque little village on the other side of the Mont Blanc tunnel. A village with interial design stores, Hermès and children's design clothes. The closest we got to skiing today was the skipass purchase, but we are all set for tomorrow, fully equipped with and sponsored by Sweden's most prominent ski wear of course.

And then 'inbetweenlunchanddinner' Italian ham, cheese and bread from the local shop which we enjoyed on our little balcony, trying to save some room for the huge pizza we have visualised for dinner since we left Stockholm this morning.

Skiing holiday or food holiday?
