At the top of the mountain (Pic del Cubil (2358m)) just ready to set off on the red run down to Pla de la Cot (2052m).

Later in the day when the fog, or was it clouds, came in.

Skiing in Andorra - Day 3

First day actually on the slopes and the conditions are perfect: plenty of snow; not too hot and not too cold.

All kitted-up and ready to go.
This is at La Caubella (1950m) with the nursery slopes in the background.
On the way up to Pla de la Cot (2052m) and the blue run back down to La Caubella.

Skiing in Andorra - Day 1 and 2

Just after Christmas we are off skiing with friends in Andorra again. On the 27th we fly to Barcelona, pick up a hire car and then do the three hour plus drive up to Pal in Andorra where we are staying in an apartment owned by our friends' parents.

No skiing on the 28th as we pop into the capital to stock up with food and then go an get our ski boots, poles and skis from the hire shop.

Still time for a game of Monopoly though!
View from our bedroom window.
