I enjoyed reading your points and views Ian.
And must say I was looking forward to hearing about your Austrian expedition - really sad when I heard how much your knee curtailed your skiing fun :cry:
I go to France .....
I speak the language well and enjoy that.
I am also very keen on the ski in and out convenience usually offered in the higher level ski stations rather than towns down in the valley.
Also when I have tried to be adventurous and go elsewhere something seems to go wrong!
Yep I can understand that, I agree with all your points but why do people go to a certain country
after my visit to AustriaI I found the prices were more or less the same after being told that it is so cheap compared to France the skiing is more or less as it is just a mountain covered in snow.
Perhaps it is just they have always gone to a destination so know no better. :shock:
