Bansko looking v.good

Just been looking at the webcam on this site and on www.banskoski.com and the runs are really looking very good after all the stressing and panic only a few days ago.

All those flying out tomorrow for the xmas week, have brilliant time and save some snow for everyone else! Very Happy Booze

And a very merry ( Booze) xmas to all of you and I have absolutely no doubt at all that you will have a blast on in Bansko and on the slopes. Those runs are just crying out to be skied on! If I were going tomorrow I would make sure that I got the first gondola to the top of the mountain and be the first to carve that carefully groomed piste. Then again, I am quite sad like that!

Enjoy Very Happy

Hotel Perun, which i think is 5/10 min from gondola. Hope the white stuff is enough for us to try and ski!! I will be the one flat on my backside most of the time laughing while my two children will just ski on by.

Ha Ha, I reckon I will be on my backside too while my whole family does black runs by the end of the week. I can always dream of being James Bond, the reality may be something quite different! Whatever the outcome of my first foray into skiing, I am really looking forward to a great time! My wife Val and I will watch out for you.
