Got any alternative suggestions? And are you volunteering? :)

There are also benefits to visiting a place for a second time. I think
we got more out of Avoriaz the second time we went there, and I think we
would from Kitzbühel too. Some people didn't manage to find their way
down the Giggling until the last day, for example. It's also a lot
easier to organise if we're not moving to a new place _every_ year.

You're right that it's nice to move around though, which is why we moved
on from Avoriaz after two years and why we were definitely planning to
move on from Kitzbühel for 2011.
