I/we have arrived, lots of snow, if you have any questions regarding pamps please ask and if I can find the answer I will, if not I wont.
Off skiing now back later........
Honestly, I would say that for maybe 3 to 4 days an advance skier would be kept entertained but it would entail repeating runs and perfecting them. You could also go down to Chepelare for a day which is only 20 mins drive away and has the longest run in Bulgaria. Provides a change of scene?
Must agree, skier of over 25years, first time in pamporovo, very enjoyable today, lots of snow and snowed today, may get bored by wednesday, however snow is snow and aslong as you have it you will have fun, if I was to choose next year between paying £350 all inclusive in pamps or paying £700 B&B in the alps, its Pamps everytime, if the alps could do £450 all inc then the alps are the winner.
Looking at the dump that is coming to us this week, I am sure you will have a great time wellsie
Went out today - the pistes are in lovely conditions, with the good base from all the snow two weeks ago and the fresh dry & fluffy snow on top. A little bit chilly in the wind that came around luch time, followed by a fresh sprinkle of snow. At the end of the day the sun made an appearance. Tomorrow will be a great day !!
Wellsie - there are a lot of places you can go in the trees, but ask someone here who knows the area - might save you having to walk back out to the pistes !!
hi williamsfamily, we have found it no problems, but that is because we were aware of the change, unlike yourselves. No mad rush at 6.30pm to get the drinks. Food only lukewarm as standard but we have managed to eat today for free which was the main reason for AI, all the hot drinks and hot chocolate have been a bonus, I have never drunk so much hot chocolate.....and boy does my stomach know about it right now.

Met up with DDT (dare devil trevor) and his son today and had a good time, just left him as he was going to the lobby bar for more free booze, I will let you know if he managed to get drinks at 20.30.
only bad time was the trip up last night, we got on the coach at 22.00 (1 hr flight delay) left airport at 22.30, due to a suitcase cockup arrived back at airport at 23.00, left airport at 23.15. arrived at the 24hr mcdonalds at 00.30 only to find it closed to walk in traffic, the drive through was open but the coach could not get through, so had a hotdog from a guy at the side of the road, dont know what meat was in the hot dog, but could have been dog ??, managed to get to cheplere at 02.19 only to be stopped by the police and told to get snowchains on, that took 67mins, dont know why but it did. left cheplere at 03.25 arrive at hotel at 04.00, bed at 04.30....6 1/2 hours to get there.....now very sleepy, night night
Good, so glad they have sorted the AI out, we had the same sort if transfer so know the feeling but you have at least got the benefit of a nice shower, nothing better than a chill out in the lobby bar with a nice bulgarian beer, I think I have left a sock there can you ask for it lol
