Home in bonnie Scotland

A fantastic week away 3 good mates off to the alpine slopes together it couldn't fail to be a good holiday. but I would like emphasise just how good it was we had one day with really bad weather but all in all very good conditions. the resort had excellent access to 650km of piste that's around 400 miles ! Due to weather and the fact we wanted to remain a tight knit small group when stu was with us for 4 days meant we never got to explore anywhere near as many off the slopes as we were capable off BUT objective achieved we had some cracking runs and all improved our techniques. It was a shame the Dixie micks finished midweek they were an excellent band but we loved our time in Dixie's bar even when the band weren't playing. the bar has a replacement band lined up for the next batch of skiers to enjoy. there are other good bars around town we just couldn't visit them all ! the food was excellent and we had some great beers ,but it was expensive to eat and drink out ! We did do plenty of our own cooking and had some beers in our retro apartment so we had a good balance of budget and enjoy ourselves.
The ski week holiday is always my most expensive week of the year but I do love it and think its worth it all in all the holiday cost .remembering we booked all of it individually,flights were around £130, apartment was £110, ski pass was £180, ski hire about £80 and transfers £60 a grand total of £560, food and drink for the week was £440, a massive saving from crystal who would have been £920 plus beers so all in all individually our week in morzine cost us around £1000each
Our flight home was excellent we were very lucky for some reason the air hostess singled the 3of us out to get a window seat each at the emergency exits. she said she wanted people she felt capable of opening the doors in an emergency. so not only did each of us get leg room to the front but had two empty seats beside us to stretch out along . I had a beer and halved a sandwich with bob stretched myself out and read the final few pages of an excellent book.ultra marathon man by dean karnazes i would highly recommend it a fantastic read much better than my blog ! But hopefully you have enjoyed it and noticed the improvement in style as the week and the time I had to do it in improved
