Winter Wonderland

I've heard Switzerland stereotyped as a snowy paradise... and I guess it's true!

As soon as I dropped my suitcases in my apartment, I went for a walk up the nearby hillside and accidentally stumbled onto this charming scene: a frozen pond with "kids" of all ages - figure skating, playing hockey, pulling toboggans, and running around. By the side of the pond was a skate-rental table, and a booth that sold roasted chestnuts and hot mulled wine.

Does it get much better?
