J2Ski Holiday 2014

Actually Gareth, I don't think the conditions spoilt my enjoyment at all - but then I am rather unusual and I found the fog in Folgarida last year very amusing! :)

I didn't lose any ski-ing time because of the wind, the lack of snow, or the restricted pistes. And I really enjoyed ski-ing in the sunshine :)

I mean, even when we were only on a few pistes it was still masses bigger than a snow dome, and we were out in the open air able to enjoy the view and the mountain restaurants.

Plus, I certainly didn't find the area boringly easy to ski! In fact, I found it highly challenging simply trying to ski under control without falling over on the ice ...

And, it was great to have so many friends, old and new, to ski with. Wherever I went on the slopes I seemed to meet up with members of the group, or see them from the chairlift :)

Didn't you get over to Sestriere then? was the link shut?

Hi Snapzzz,
Yes, most of us got over to Sestriere on Saturday, and I think maybe a few people got there on Wednesday as well, although I'm not sure because I was ski-ing in Sansicario with the Ski Club of GB and 2 other people from our group on Wednesday.

Oh, and this is last year's thread. We've got a bit mixed up somehow :(

We, i would say it was you. You posted the review in the wrong thread?

Yes but it was old baldie who started the confusion on page 90!!!!!

Actually it was me !! I was trying to find the J2Ski holiday thread on the Friday night to wish them all a good holiday and I used the wrong one,( page 91) but the last couple of messages seemed to be about Sauze so I went for it.( it was getting late - wine had been consumed). Then others followed suit....Anyway off tomorrow myself it looks to be a snowy week in the alps, could have done with it this week!!!

It's OK it wasn't you, Lizzie-B. What happened was that Bald-eagleman went off-piste and we all followed him without looking where we were going :(

I hope you have a great time on your holiday :)

Anyway, I'm going to scarper out of here before someone else goes off-piste looking for the Sauze holiday thread! ;)
