Well, dependant on your ability, you could be in for a really good time, or a really really good time Wink
New snow on piste now forming great moguls, areas under lifts filled with new snow and skiing great, bowl is a blast... Not to busy now after Rumanian/Serbian holiday so not much queueing...

I'd estimate around 25cm has fallen yesterday and today, though due to the heavy nature of the snow its settling quickly...

Traditional, none better than the `Bariacova' near to the main church, tourist, try a steak in the Friendly, or a pizza at the Irish... Drink prices are general apart from Ulen owned bars and restaurants (happy End etc)

Thanks for the tip steve. We enjoy the traditional so we will definately give that a go. You are arranging our transfer. Is there anything that you would like bought over from the UK?

You can get HP sauce and Yorkshire teabags (plus other stuff) from Andys Foods and he delivers to Bansko as his missus is from there. www.andysfoods.com

looks like the top of the mountain is closed, combination of real visability problems... and lots of new snow Wink
