A short clip of this was shown on Ski Sunday last night.
Great to see a bit more of it.
The grass skiing surprised me the most!

Wow. What a lengthy report and I bet you missed loads out too!

Seems like you take everything in your stride, including terrorist issues in Paris.
Well done Ally.

And the pessimist was...........?

Have a fantastic time.

Nooo....the worst part in UNpacking when you get home.

Have a great time.

Sounds brilliant!

Hi, unless you are prepared to use good child care or not ski much yourself I'd think carefully about taking a 3 year old.
We took our daughter for her 1 st time at 4 and we did use all day child care and she did learn to ski, but I can't say she enjoyed it a huge amount as it was very cold and tiring.
Relatives of ours took their children at a little older and they learnt just as quickly and coped a lot better with the travelling ( even driving such a long way with a child is exhausting) and all were at same level after only a few trips.
If it were me doing it again I'd either leave her with a willing grandparent or as suggested previously use a company that will look after her all day and play and make the day fun and maybe put her on skis for a couple of hours a day. ( that's not an inexpensive option though).
For info we went to Austria and there were omly 2 other English speaking kids in the kindergarten, the other being my son which was also tough.
Good luck, I hope you let us know what you decide and maybe write a review if you do take her.
Dids.

I'll hold my hands up and admit it wasn't for us as a group because we had slow teens and were in Les Houches, so were out on a limb a bit.
Definitely best left to the real boys and I know you'd prefer it that way!

Great pics.
