Andorra Ski Trip


Looking for some reasonable snow in the local areas, a friend suggested we try Andorra. So up early in the morning to drive up to Andorra - Grandvalira/Soldeu.


 
The snow was actually pretty good - softened up in the afternoon a bit (but then spring skiing at +20C will do that!!)



Charlie and Mark getting ready for another go....

We found a natural half pipe.....

We also found an ice bar built in to an igloo (big pile of snow actually....)

And an ice hotel....








See - +20C, we weren't kidding!!

A picture of some of the switchbacks on the drive home - pretty amazing (and make sure you bring your sick bag!!)
