Fantastic week!!
Went to Pas De La Casa in Andorra. The pistes were packed and icy in places but decent enough. It snowed mid-week which improved things slightly. The link to Soldeu was closed but we took the bus one day, snow there was rubbish. We managed to get to Arcalis (the hidden treasure) where the snow was excellent (but there was only 2 runs), and Pal which was similar to Pas but again fewer runs.
I nailed skiing backwards last year, so this time I hired some freestyle skis. Great fun, managed to stomp a few 180s. Now i've got my heart set on a pair of 1080's and some trips to the snow dome!!
Already looking for weekend ski breaks and next year's hol!
