Fighting the frost in Canada

Article Abstract:

Those considering visiting the ski resort of Banff, Canada, should be aware that it can be extremely cold there. For this reason, it is vital to wear many layers of clothing and to cover every area of exposed skin. Indeed, some skiers choose to wear a face mask. It is important to look out for signs of frostbite, and it is therefore very advisable to always ski with a companion. However, very cold conditions do not usually last very long, and the resort has many attractions. The snow conditions are very good, and there is excellent cross-country skiing too.

Warsaw

Article Abstract:

The city of Warsaw, Poland, is dominated by the Palace of Culture and Science, which was a gift to the Polish people in 1955 from Stalin. It is one of a considerable number of signs of Soviet influence which remain in Warsaw. Others include wide boulevards and ugly tower blocks. However, there are some attractive parts of the city, and it is now taking on a much more positive atmosphere. Some of its hotels now meet western standards, and there are some very good restaurants.
