Why is that ise, is it that Switzerland has a poor education system only teaching their children two languages, what ever next . :lol:

I also think someone has been using babel fish :twisted:

Fly into Innsbruck and have a break in St Anton or the more laid back Lech - you'd love that.
Or what about my old favourite haunt of Mayrhofen?
Schladming in a target for me for next season.
If its a short trip, maybe you ought to seriously look at Andermatt, Switzerland. Might just be perfect. Fly into Zurich, take the train and arrive relaxed.....
Just a few ideas.

Thanks Tony, Andermatt may be a possibility, Lech.....MMmm might fancy that 8)

Great little village, snow sure ski area with great skiing, an hour from Geneva.

Done a couple of short breaks there and both been successful.

Neige et Roc is a nice Hotel, the bus stops very close by.

Thanks Dids1 , already ticked it off a few years ago :wink:

I'm not counting Austria out, it just has to fit the criteria, I'm gonna be open minded :shock: :shock:

Now listen guys I need your help as you have gathered me and Mrs W have a little four night ski break in March, Little W tucked away at Grandma's we go off and have a bit of our time, Ok you know the story,
Now this years trip to Adelboden was Ok but the ski area was not very well linked the previous year Passo Tonale Ok but a real beginners resort, so I have picked these last two resorts and really they have not matched up to La Thuile which was the year before Passo and was great, now 2010 I would like the full package a nice village, plenty of well linked skiing,snow sure, two hours from an airport max, I would like everything...
Here is your mission should you except it, find me the perfect resort which matches all the above criteria...... :D :D
