The biggest event in the winter sports calendar – the Winter Olympics – kick off in just one week’s time (10th-26th February 2006). You’re a bit late if you’re thinking of entering, but possibly not to late if you simply wish to marvel at the skiing, sledding, skating and more against the spectacular backdrop of the Italian Alps.
