Cheers to all the feedback
I think we are going to stay put and hope for the best.
A friend has siad he just would not go skiing at the new year another says they always go at christmas to obergergul and never had a problem, seems there is no easy answer.

its me i confess its me
just trying ot get as much advice as possible hope I have not trod on anyones skis
cheers

Hello all
I am taking my family skiing for the first time.
The kids can ski. Bulgaria and USA.
I have snow boarded in a fridge, LOVE IT.
the wife and i are due to start ski lessons
I have booked Andorra on a whim over new year break to escape England and to do something different
But it will be one heck of an expensive mistake if no snow.
I am also concerned that I am out of Soldeu and me thinks I should change, if so should i go somewhere else completely?
Andorra seems good for beginners skiing but very quiet and whilst I am not in the 18-30 bracket i would like some nice village atmosphere christmas card style apre ski shopping.
Kids 23 & 17
wife 50th birthday (hence the trip)
Any thoughts before I cancel completely and go in search of a beach holiday instead please.

Will it be awfully busy? I do not mind the atmosphere and the hustle and bustle but is it dog eat dog on the lifts and slopes ?

many thanks so far for all your suggestions so far I am still pondering

thinking obergugl again hotel madeliene looks good is it high enough ??

thanks but they can spend there own money i see it looks pricey suppose looking for the perfect place.
plus making sure we can ski at new year plus bit of luxury for the wifes 50th all in all a struggle for under 7k half borad plus all the gear.
keep looking
