sunglasses or goggles?

i'd guess you'd have to go for goggles, but i haven't skied under floodlights except for on the dry slope where i wore nothing so maybe this could be an option also??
Best Deals

Best deals i have seen were on crystal just before christmas. I was looking on the 19th dec, leaving 20th and you could fly from Bristol (my local airport) to grenoble and get a catered chalet in la plagne or les deux alpes for £145! That will take some beating! They also had a holiday to tignes i think leaving belfast for the same price!

At the mo there is c.£300 catered chalet Alpe D'huez and Les deux alpes leaving this saturday, but that price will drop nearer the time!

Hi riplingj, i'm pleased to say i've skied alpendorf, albeit on a trip over from wagrain!
was there april just gone first week, when if don't know if you remember but there was a nice dump of snow sunday evening/all day monday! was the last week of the season! I will happily say this was my favourite ski trip ever! Not least because i discovered Tiroler Grostl! :mrgreen: :lol: We only went over Alpendorf day once, with our instructor but was great! Do you wear the purple and white jackets?? I noticed a few english instructors talking toghether in those jackets!

I will definetly revisit the area again as i didn't see radstadt, flachauwinkle and zauhesee (sp?)!

Lovely place and a must visit for anybody!

info on la plagne

To be honest i'd advise getting just the la plagne pass and upgrading on whatever day you need! There's plenty of skiing in La Plagne!
tour operators!

For what is worth crystal are offering a catered chalet board in a club hotel in tignes for a week 27th onwards £950 selfdrive :roll: Thats the cheapest in tignes they have for that week! :mrgreen:

I'm sure if between you all, you payed for rossF or bennyboy to come they'd teach them!

Hope you don't mind me volunteering you two by the way?? :mrgreen: :lol:
