BORO UPDATE - DEC 20TH - SNOWING

Morning Guys

Woke up at 5am to clear skies but has been snowing heavily for the last hour and a half with the snow settling...just got a bit lighter now.....still only the Rila and Rotata drag open so intermdieates / advanced are starting to get a bit fed up to say the least. Bobby has an advanced class, but they have deicded to learn to snowboard for the week with him instead so at least they're happy but feel sorry for the others that we have met who basically can't do amything.. ...

Will keep you posted but at the moment it's just snow, snow and snow here!! Will put some photos up on facebook for you.

Shout if any queries, but if anyone is coming out at the weekend then try and stop panicking and keep doing your snow dancing...

Hi Kas

Thanks for the update - i know we shouldn't get excited about forcasts but i've just checked one that i keep an eye on and it says Thursday is looking promising for snow, perhaps Mark IOW may know more? Not sure i fancy blizzard skiing but at a push could be forced to give it a go.
All the packing is now done apart from my flight bag, off to do some last minute shopping and by this time tomorrow we should be 30,000ft above Europe somewhere. See you all tomorrow lunchtime N xx

It is looking good in Borovets and rumour has it they will open some of the lifts and are opening a couple of red runs and a green run higher up so there should be some reasonable sking to be had, lets all pray that the forecast is right for Thursday and fun will be had by all.
Remember to visit Bobby's Bar food great and the shots will most definately keep you warm.
