Good morning helpful people...I'm worrying again!
I'm going to Pamporovo with my daughter who's seven. I'm booked into ski school and my girl's booked for kindergarten (that nobody seems to be able to tell me the cost of!) and I'm confused as to how it will work out logistically.
Will I be able to manage the dropping off and collection without missing part of my classes? Would it be possible for us to have lunch together or will we be too far away from each other?
and, worst ...

and, worst case scenario, if she hates kindergarten will I then have to forfeit ski school?

re: logistics - will it work?
If she hates kindergarten which I'm sure she won't then she is old enough for ski school herself.Not been to Pamps so can't help with the other side of things I'm afraid.
She'll love it and so will you
Enjoy

re: logistics - will it work?
Yes you will have time they run it to match up. If you are in beginners class you may well be able to meet up for lunch on your 1st day or 2 but after that you will be up the mountain so might proove tricky. At 7 she can join you if you ask when you get there.
re: logistics - will it work?
I was at Pamps at Xmas with my daughter. If she is booked into the same kindergaten as mine was ( in the shopping centre) you can drop her off at 9 and you don't start lessons till 10 so that gives you an hour to get the bus to Malina get your skis & boots and outside to meet your instructor.
If she makes you late as kids often do don't hang around for a bus grab a taxi about £5.
Don't know which hotel you are in but we were in the Pamporovo and the ski instructors offered to take my ...

Don't know which hotel you are in but we were in the Pamporovo and the ski instructors offered to take my daughter there in the mornings. We found it easier to do it ourselves 'cos they sent different people for the 1st 2 days which unsettled my daughter a bit.
As for cost most of the travel comps. do it free if you have booked a full ski pack or lessons so get back to them and ask !

re: logistics - will it work?
Thanks for the information, yes it does come free if you have a couple of adults booked for learn to ski pack, but as I'm a single adult we don't get that bonus!!
We're staying at the Pamporovo hotel and the brochure says that she'll be collected and dropped off, but from what I've managed to read on here it appears delivery and collection will be down to me! Not knowing the scale of the place I'm finding it difficult to figure out how it'll all work - but am sure it will, things ...

(I'd love for her to be in ski school and have lunches/meets in the middle of the day but she's deemed too young!)

re: logistics - will it work?
We were late nearly everyday ( holiday pace ) in the mornings. We found the easiest in the end was to get a taxi outside the hotel drive up to kindergarten ( remind the taxi driver not to charge waiting time) drop off then back in same taxi to Malina.
Pamps hotel to Kindergarten in taxi 2 - 3 mins. Kindergarten - ski depot 7 mins approx.
Cost approx 15 lev. approx £ 5.50 this meant an extra couple of cuppas in the morning,no waiting for anybody to collect daughter, she felt better ...

Cost approx 15 lev. approx £ 5.50 this meant an extra couple of cuppas in the morning,no waiting for anybody to collect daughter, she felt better being taken to kindergarten by parents,we felt better 'cos we could see she was OK before we went off. No waiting for bus to ski depot.And a RAC rally experience from some of the cab drivers. All for a fiver.
Going back we took the bus 'cos we had more time to spare.
The resort is not big you can walk from the Pamps Hotel to the far end Daks Bar in about 10 mins. Takes longer when you drop into every bar on the way though !!
