Christmas in borovets

Hi all

We are travelling to Borovets Xmas eve. Family of four, staying at the rila. Noticed that the resort is not open. Little worried. Will it be opening soon?
Also can anyone advise what to do during our week? Have two children. 13 and 10. Where good to drink and eat and things to do apart from ski. Looking at different snow forecasts. All seem to be very different?

Thanks all

There is plenty to do, swimming, bowling, shooting gallery in the Samakov hotel. Ice skating not far away. Swimming pool also in the Rila. Good places to eat - obviously Bobby's bar but other than that a good range for everyone - mexican, pizzas and if you look hard enough even Bulgarian! You will have a great time - keep watching this forum for weather updates it is the most reliable as Kas and Bobby are there.
