I hate the first day being alone with the kids ITS STRESSFULL!!!!
after that I kinda relax and enjoy the skiing.
any tips welcome!
Thanks in advance!

re: First day!
HiWe are in exactly the same position as you, flying from Gatwick Sunday afternoon.
I haven't been to Bulgaria for 8 years but stopped in the Samokov then and the ski store was in the basement. Ski school about 10 mins walk.
We are a group of 10 but the 2 children have never skied before, also 4 adult beginers and I am snowboarding for the first time only ever skied before.

Hope you have a good holliday!
re: First day!
Mine are 9 and 11 and never skied, but the stress comes from my mum (babysitter) and dad who has also never skied and is over 60 now.Can't wait to see some snow.
re: First day!
Dont worry, there will be plenty, the kids will love it!

re: First day!
Ian,Dont worry,On the first day they will pick up their ski gear from the basement of the Samokov.
Classes are graded for ability , not age,for lunches, give them enough to last the day.When they are finished they will find you!
Ski's are stored in the basement of the Samokov,
hope this helps
