Anyone else heading off for a week in the Alps tomorrow?

We're going to Ischgl - can't wait!

Just trying to decide whether to take all the base layers and extras or not? I guess I will, just in case its cold.

[Eastpoint]

We skied there at half term, not very relevant but small queues and well connected (we stayed in Samnaun rather than Ischgl itself). Have fun!

[MrsRedFly]

Me!!

Was just going to take layers maybe a fleece (might be cold first thing then roasting later)

Have fun everyone!

[juneau]

Where are you going Red?

[MackerelOfFact]

I was in the French Alps last week and it was 14C one day! I did wear base layers and a jacket and gloves during the day, but mostly the coat was undone and I didn't need a scarf or anything. Obviously it gets a lot chillier once the sun goes in though.

Have fun!

Flaine - not been before but have been mainly to France for ski holidays

DC are not happy as they are going into morning ski lessons (as is DH)

[juneau]

Oh Flaine is nice. The resort itself is no beauty, but if you're a happy intermediate there are loads of lovely fast, sunny reds all around a huge bowl and there are lovely views of Mt Blanc from the top. Your kids will be fine (and you'll enjoy the peace - I can't wait to get mine into ski school )

[dontcallmethatyoucunt]

Yes, can't wait. I'm looking at the weather and thinking it's going to be colder than normal at this time.... but that could still be quite hot.

[MrsRedFly]

Sounds good! I'll be skiing with the rest of my family & collecting everyone at lunch - unlike last year where we barely saw the DC
