Default Sochi elected the XXII Olympic Winter Games in 2014

http://www.olympic.org/uk/news/olymp...uk.asp?id=2221

That's right, Sochi - on the Black Sea, where :-

"The resort has a warm climate, averaging +7 °C (44.6 °F) in January and
February, and boasts many sanatoria and mineral baths. There are also tea
plantations, the most northerly in Europe. Sochi attracts vacation-goers
with its subtropical vegetation, numerous parks, monuments, and extravagant
Stalinist architecture".

Have I missed something here?
Has the IOC missed something here?
