Staying at a "snow hotel" above Norway´s Arctic Circle
The Snowhotel Kirekenes, one of just a handful in the world (most of them, of course, in northern Europe, especially Scandinavia).

Tourist killed by hotel water
After a hotel's powerful filter removed all the chlorine from city water, bacteria grew -- killing one and making two others ill.
A foreign visitor has died and at least two other people have become sick after staying at a downtown Miami luxury hotel, and health officials are blaming an unusual type of pneumonia called Legionnaire's Disease.
Guests at the Epic Hotel have been relocated to nearby hotels to prevent further contact with the water, according to the Miami-Dade County Health Department.
Doctors say there is no cause for widespread alarm because only three cases of the bacteria have surfaced in the last two months.
Guests at a downtown Miami luxury hotel have been relocated after health officials determined three international visitors contracted Legionnaires' disease there. One died.
The Miami-Dade County Health Department's senior physician said Sunday that three cases of Legionnaires have been diagnosed at the Epic Hotel since October. Dr. Vincent Conte said water samples taken this week showed chlorine levels below the threshold needed to curb bacterial growth.
Officials issued a health advisory to the hotel's guests Friday. Conte said more than 400 guests would be relocated to nearby hotels by Saturday.
