Help for some newbies!!!!

We are travelling as a group of 4 to Borovets on Saturday 8th for a week. We've never been skiing before and like a lot of people we are worried about the weather and ski conditions.

We've already bought our ski passes and arranged lessons but we're are not sure whether we should cancel these for a full refund and then depending on the conditions arrange this when we get to the resort. I've seen on a few websites that you need to pre book this before you arrive??? Can you arrange this ...

Booking lessons out there and getting hire equipment has never been a problem for us. We have decided to do that again this year with the conditions then can take each day at a time.

Also there are lots of different ski schools/ hire places to go to to arrange when you are there.

If you can get a FULL refund it might pay , if you've booked a package with one of the big tour operators( i guess you've paid around £160 all in) you might be too late and will possibly lose the lot ..you do leave in 4 days!!( i know as just packed my case!!)
Lots of places to hire stuff and get lessons but to be honest you probably aren't going to save much money !
