We went to Pila nearly 10 years ago, so things might have changed, but we had a great holiday for all sorts of reasons. Went in early Feb so uncrowded. Not a large ski area but it worked well for us as it was the first time I felt confident on reds - and there are several really wide red runs through the trees. For a break from the slopes you can take the gondola down to Aosta for some shopping, etc. but this only ran during the daytime, so in the evenings you would need a taxi. Pila is very small but friendly. The only thing we didn't like was the evening stroll from the top to the bottom of the village as it either involved walking through the underpass amongst the traffic and fumes, or trying to find our way through the main complex and we got hopelessly lost every time!
I think we flew in to Turin and the transfer time was about 2 hours, perhaps less.

Are you trying to teach yourself Polish or have you found a class? Classes seem to be few and far between but I managed to find one a few years ago just in time to learn enough to get by whilst in Krakow.

I hope early March will still have a good snow

Edit: I apologise for my poor grammar Brucie, but English isn't my first language. Btw, how is your Polish? :wink:

Are we still talking about ski wear here or something totally different?

We are going to Lech for a week from 13th December for the third year running. Last couple of years we have had excellent ski conditions and loads of snow. The Lech/Zurs/St.Anton area is about as snow sure as it gets I think.

What a wonderful piece of filming )So if those two lovely GIRLS can do it, anyone can.
