I'm off to Les Carroz in mid March, with my wife, for a weekend break away from the kids.
Anyone else there at that time?

Maybe, I'll know later. Post again the week before and jog my memory, that's the weekend before easter right ?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

ise, yep, it's the weekend before easter. It's easier for us to sneak off during term time as it reduces childcare requirements while were're away.
I'll try to remember to bump this post up nearer the time.

I'm thinking I/we will be there that time actually according to the diary, we've been avoiding going during the Feb' rush and won't go at Easter for the same reason, so that was one of the weekends I expected to be there.
Have you been before ?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Never. Flight availability and timing is usually the main issue and so, from Manchester, Zurich usually beats Geneva and we use the more eastern Swiss resorts for our weekend escape/fix.
But the new Jet2 flights made Geneva a better bet this year and we plumbed for Les Carroz because of the size of the Grand Massif and it's altitude compared to other resorts near to the airport.
ise, Don't you have a spot in Samoens?

Bump!
Well only two more sleeps and we're off. Ski's are waxed, ski gear packed, last gym session tonight and we should be on the slopes by Thursday lunch, French Air Traffic Control allowing!
If I remember from the "Where would you ski....." thread , ise, and Snow Bunny, should be around, but I'm not sure if Jayne Durham, was able to get away.
Anyone fancy meeting up for a few turns?

You know it makes sense.
