Thats where i was..
Place is quite good, the runs are amazing..

Make sure you have a full area pass, and also go up the top on the train, views were emense.

Also, Val'charet or somethign like that, is the place to go out drinking, boy, they like the jagermeister out there, the stuff on tap in some places.

As like the rest of France, its bloody expensive, due to the exchange rate.
When i was there Early January, couldnt find a alcoholic drink for >5 euro.
Remember and take some extra money..

Are you going with Crystal or somethign similiar?

We've booked it privately. Only place I've been to before is Meribel.

We'll be taking some tins of food with us to leave more money for beer
