The weather was the most important feature for this week’s guests. It started to snow lightly on Sunday afternoon just as the guests arrived. It continued through the night and into Monday morning, producing the largest fall of the season. Unfortunately this caused the ski bu to run very late, so some guest and instructors did not arrive until after 10 o’clock. It continued to snow lightly during most of the day. This meant skiing in poor visibility but on great light powdery fresh snow..
Tuesday was very cold, with a bright blue sky., ideal skiing conditions. I had a morning class of advanced beginners, who very much enjoyed the great snow conditions. After my class, I was able to ski down to the village on the black run with Ian, another instructor. Although late in the day we were still able to find some untracked powder. A great day!

It remained cold and bright for the rest of the week so this week’s guests have enjoyed the best week’s conditions of any group this season.. I really enjoyed skiing with my group as they were a really nice bunch.

Next Sunday, the 21st March, the Palarine is hosting a performance by a 60’spp star, whose biggest hit was kept of the number one stop by the Beatles’ “Hey Jude”. . in 1968. Can you name the singer and the song? So if any of you were fans and are coming out next week the performance starts at 9 pm..

There is a music festival in Arinsal starting on 14th and none of us knows what to expect.. I will report ob the festival next week, so watch this space..
