More skiing. The Chronicle goes to Banff and has a good time.
Skiing is part of the mixed bag in The Guardian this week, with a look at some of the more enterprising chalets in The Alps. There’s also a piece on cycling in Sardinia, which has a few too many typos and cliches. More interesting is a prison visit in Bolivia.

Another “celebrity” writing about their travels. Fiona Bruce goes to Borneo in The Telegraph. Although I’m not sure I needed to know so much about her son’s swollen ankle and the final paragraph doesn’t make much sense, it is OK as “celebrity” pieces go.
The LA Times has searched for a currency that was good value against the dollar and ended up in Iceland and found it was such good value they decided to go twice. They didn’t really, it’s just two different pieces about the same trip.
Sanity is restored at The Independent (despite yet more on Washington DC) where Stephen Wood skis in Formigal and the writing informative and honest. There’s an interesting article on the faster train links across Europe and there’s diving in Queensland.
