Just back from Bansko

Amazing conditions on the slopes, just about perfect. Very cold on Tues/Wed (-25C) with snow but sunshine Thurs/Fri.

Never had to queue for the gondola but there was at least an hour queue for Ski/Boot fitting on the first day so get there early !

Oh and based on an average of 4/5 pints before dinner and a bottle of wine with a 3 course meal in the evening my total outlay (spending money) for the week was £160

According to my ski instructor, the compacted snow on the piste is about 1.5 m deep. It'll be there for a while yet !
