I supose the smell of garlic used to be an issue in france with men and women …. but these days we normally eat lots of garlic so we don't notice anymore and apart from some dodgy skiwear I have not seen any leather shorts :thumbup:

If that's the case I'd question going to the Sella Ronda - Selva, Arraba etc. because they aren't very Italian. Up until the end of the First World War they were Austrian and still have more of an Austrian feel than Italian. Same goes for the local food.
Fascinating place nevertheless and an amazing ski area. Spectacular scenery.

He will be fine then he loves Austria 8)

Go on go …… only if you like men in leather shorts -)

Tony France has hardly as snow during December and it shows …. new snowfall the end of the week though :thumbup:

Completed ……. if you go on to the survey it does state 35+, if you bother to read it -)

Downside is the 4/5 hour transfer time.

If you fly to Innsbruck and hire a car Livigno is an easy 2.5 hour drive and also it is a beautiful drive, well it is when get out Austria :P

Only Joking before "It is the only place to ski Brigade start complaining" -)

Folgarida are due for some at the end of this week …. How much we will have to wait and see :thumbup:

I thought today I would post you a webcam piccie from Madonna Di Compiglio ……..
