OK, Ski Roll Call.... Who's going where this season and when?

[Whippet]

It's always fun to see if you can spot another MNer on the slopes

Whippet - Les Gets - First week in Jan

Claviere for half term! Only second time skiing in Europe ! So excited ! Just need to keep up with ds 9 who whizzes past me on the blacks as I struggle on the blues!

Off to Morzine in the morning

It's not a skiing holiday, it's a family Christmas holiday funded by with the IL's, but the skis are packed!!

Iwish, have a lovely family holiday . Where are you staying?

We're off to Les Gets on Friday - can't wait! The snow has finally arrived and it is looking good.

It started to arrive a week or so ago! If you're stayin gin Les Gets, be sure to check out Mont Chery :)

That's good to hear snowmummy! We're in a chalet in Les Gets, and from the description I think we're on the Mont Chery side - I fully intend going there, although we'll have two 5 year olds in ski school on the Chavannes side, and a couple of second weeker children with us in the afternoons. But I'm hoping to spend at least one morning on Mont Chery! This time tomorrow, we should be there

Mont Chery is really close. I love Les Gets and Mont Chery is my favourite bit :)

Obergurgl with Esprit at End Feb all being well. Sadly, the in-laws are coming too... not entirely needed since we're going with Esprit, but so hard to find a company that do Chalets or Chalet Hotels, in Austria (for nice toilets), with en suite bathrooms, not too far from slopes, have kids mini ski lessons (3yo child), oh, and doesn't cost £1200 per person. :)

We went with Ski Total, Esprits (almost Adults only branch) and they were awesome. And we've been or Obergurgl before - only I was 6m preg at the time.

V excited.

Ardent also on 21st January! IwishIwasmoresparkly - are you going with Family Ski?

St Anton with Esprit, 5th Feb can't wait. Not even the headmaster at school and his unauthorised leave look will make me stop smiling

Just a quick report from Les Gets, we've had a fabulous week, snow is good but could do with an extra layer. Yesterday was pretty warm so it went quite slushy but we had a bit more snow this morning and it's much colder again. Anyway, hope you all have wonderful skiing holidays, that's it for us until the 2012/13 season!

Flaine- first week of feb.

Chamonix for 2 weeks in March. Going with dh and dd1 who is 5, dd2 who will be nearly 3 and our new ds who will be 4 months. My parents are coming for part of the holiday and mum said she will sit at bottom of piste with ds so I can bf him between runs! At the moment he feeds every hour! Just posted a thread about whether we should drive down there with all the children...

Les Gets in March. It will be my first time skiing in five long years!

Font Romeu - Pyrenees. Small resort, but with lots of other fab resorts (Les Angles, Puigmal, Formigueres, Cambre D'Aze) within 20 mins drive. Cheaper than the Alps as well! Going half term week in Feb (luckily French half term is a different week, so should be nice and quiet)

Just back from a week in La Plagne, fantastic snow and 1st 3 days were wall to wall sunshine. We had a great time. Now scouring internet for a week in Feb (not half term). Les Gets sounds interesting......

Snowmummy We stayed with Alpine Action in Chalet Lucioles which was brilliant, so close to Pleney that ds's (6 and 3) didn't moan about walking in their ski boots

HarrogateMum - Yes we are - our 3rd year in a row and we can't wait . Will you be there too?

No we didn't Snowmummy! We stayed with Alpine Adventure

Champoluc, Italy in March - fantastically good and quiet resort for the children, this will be our third year with the fabulous Ski2 team!

I love Banff etc, but we won't go back until our youngest is a competent skier, so that'll be another 4 years or so!

Sparkly - yes we go on 21st Jan with Family Ski, we are in two chalets, my family is in Chalet Cosy and the rest of our party is in a bigger one, can't remember name! We are a group of 14 in total and there wasn't a chalet the right size for us. Never been with Family Ski before, we went with Ski Famille to Les Gets last year and loved it. Are F Ski good? I am nervous as I am a rubbish skier and Les Gets was perfect for me with some lovely blues to do, not sure it will be the same in Ardent!

Can I have any views on whether we should go to Alpe d'huez in late feb or tignes in early march? Price is the same. We are one intenediate skier, one competent boarder, and 2 beginner children, 5 & 7. We will be self catering. Tignes apartment is ski in ski out, but have heard alpe d'huez is better for littlies....

Ha! We did the same last year with one family in Cosy and the rest of us in Grolets (but they came down to eat with us most nights and their host babysat). This year we're a bit smaller so we all fit in Grolets.

How old are your children? Ours are 6 and 3 so will both be skiing this year. The staff in the childcare team have been excellent both times that we've been with FSki, as have the chalet staff - top notch food with plenty of wine to wash it down!

There is a huge variety of skiing easily accessible from Ardent so don't worry about that. My fitness is rock bottom atm so I can see lots of vin chaud stops with early finishes for a hot tub!

We should have a secret code to identify each other with!!

Morzine on Jan 26th.

Cant wait!!

Just booked flights for another week in St Foy at Easter. Hope the snow sticks around!

I have twin 7 year old boys and a little girl of 5 so all will be in ski school. You can't miss us , two of my kids have bright red hair and I am really tall 5 foot 11 and hubby is an Aussie with a loud voice ! We are flying in from leeds Bradford how about you? If I suspect it is you I will scratch my right ear and hop on my left leg ha ha !
