Skiing in the Easter holidays Forums

Hi All you sliders

Well only four days to go now and we zoom off again. Just got the kit out and packed away and Linda is just itching to get out and try her new ski suit out which she got for nearly half price at one of the shops at Citie Europe when we went across to ski at half term. The snow looks really good and my emails from Jetski tell me that this is the best snow at this time of year for the last ten years.

We catch the train at 4-20 on saturday and I hope to make my first overnight stop at Mareuil sur Ay just south of Rheimes near Epernay right on the canal bank. Not in a rush to get down there so as it will be sunday and no lorries we will stop at a nice Aire about 35km north of Bourg en Bresse called Cousance. Next stop will be carpark at Manigod. A good 2 day stop over to get back into the swing of things at cheap piste prices.

We will then move onto Les Saisies on one of the Aires and spend about 6 days there. We might then move off to Grand Bornand campsite for 3 days so as to get in some more skiing as well as swimming in their indoor pool and chase up some friends that are tuggers. We will then push on back so we can get the dog done at Arques and pick up the order for Piat D'or for the granny in the annex. I hope the hymer does it's bit as usual
and the skies are blue but not too warm.

To those who are staying at home 'eat your heart out maties'

Tell you about the trip when we get back on my blogg
