Can you please let us have a full report - similar to those who have just come back from Borovets. It would be really great to know what's going on at the moment. PP and the gang all go out next weekend.

yer sure. well... i flew into plovdiv airport, plenty of snow, transfer was fine, a lot quicker than when we went to sofia. skiing was great as there was lots of snow. after a couple of days it was getting icy, and then we had a few cms of snow one night. the next day we had freezing fog, we could only see about 1 metre away from us when we were up the slope. it did not stop us though, and my instructor took us down a partially black and red run which was fun! we had a storm as well, sheet ...

also i'll just add that you would be best to check with the menu the pruces and get a rough idea of how much your spending before the bill comes, because a couple of times we got ripped off on the slopes. also, there are cheaper places to eat on the slopes than the places where the instructor would like you to go. for example there is a place called peters, who serves better food than the rest of the places for a fraction of the price, and instructors dont take anyone there.
