Thanks, Daniel. For some blocks it took me 3 attempts the get a proper version. 7 done, 53 to go .......

‘View on the Sella-Massif.’
Stay now in Corvara with my sports buddy for skiing in the Dolomites with perfect conditions and visiting Olympic events in different areas.
Unfortunately not the ice-skating... that's a 5.5 hour drive to Milan.
