I know this bloke there, Gary. He's 34 and a ski bum. Comes from Norwich originally. Works in a shop by day and a bar by night. Got shaggy hair a big nose. Don't know anyone else in that resort.

Its a slightly prettier part of Alpe d'Huez....connections over to the "main" ski area are fairly leisurely if I remember correctly, depending on where in Vaujany you start....

Connections to the ski area are fantastic IMHO. One fast cable car to Alpette which plonks you smack bang in the middle of everything. It's a great place to stay to ski AdH, not huge on nightlife though.

^ ^ This. I really liked staying there, but it's certainly quiet.

There are a couple of fantastic places to eat though. The little pizza hatch is top drawer (book ahead, he gets busy!) and in one of the restaurants I had a 'Salade Gascoigne' described on the menu as containing 'gizzards'. It didn't disappoint, since that's exactly what it was made of. The hearts and livers and tongues etc. of small gamey birds, I'm guessing quail, pidgeon, grouse, that kind of thing. It was brill-o.

We went at half term- had a great time- happy to answer any questions.
You need to be a bit careful depending on your skiing level- the local area is limited and the connection with ADH is either by red run or a gondola up and down and up again.
