Though having said that I don't think anyone actually has their Easter hols at Easter this year - but they are still called the Easter hols. The Paris crowd start the week after us so their Easter hols are actually in May!

As clear as mud??

The french Easter holidays are from 13th April till 13th May! To be honest, the main ski period for the French is the Feb half term - which runs from 16th Feb till 16th March!

Ladt year we booked for Tignes at the last minute. This year no chance! Will have to make do with some weekends and a 5 day trip to Andorra - if we are lucky 15 ski days!

Me neither. I am seriously considering this week.
Mrs Snapzzz has said that she will not be skiing again this year so now im looking at a solo trip.
The Crystal Ski Fest, which looks good, is this week in La Plagne......maybe.
