Got back this morning from Bansko, 4 days out of the 6 we had dumps and some great conditions though there were clear skies and bright sunshine as we flew out of Sofia at 11am.

Had a cracking time and some awesome off piste and tree runs to be had, but I don't think I'll ever go back.

I'm a bit of a dog lover and on the transfer to the airport I saw 2 dogs run over (I know they are wild but that's beside the point), and another 2 poor buggers badly wounded dragging themselves off the roadside. Using dogs as live speed bumps seems to be a Bulgarian pastime so I'm sticking with the Alps, the drivers didn't even bother to stop.

I'll take my money somewhere else.

I noticed that about the dogs too. We agreed that we'd probably not go back. Was decent enough though.

True mate, I won't deny the powder days were excellent and plenty of fun to be had along with great value for money, I'm just a sucker for animals and can't bear watching those scences again.

For some people though, they may well be able to overlook that and concentrate on the good which is fair enough Smile

Hi mate sorry about the lack of phone, that was bloody Vodaphone! I switched on international calls for my phone through their website then got to Bulgaria and...............................it was sodding blocked! Sad Stoopid damn thing wouldn't even let me accept incoming calls!

For all I know mate, I could have been in the same Gondola car as you and not even known Sad

If anyone is going to Bansko there's a friendly family of dogs (dad, mum, and 3 pups) halfway down Blue 1 where there's the little empty wood hut on the corner where another run joins Blue 1. Do us a favour and give 'em some attention Very Happy
