Sadly, here in Valloire there has been little snow of recent. Pretty much the town is clear and the slopes are getting a bit icy and are very hard and packed snow. The forecasters keep getting it wrong too – WE WANT MORE SNOW! On the bright side, our French…
Our week 4 – 6 diary has been uploaded to http://www.doyourdream.co.uk/trip-reviews-and-details/trip-08-snowboarding-sahara/weeks-4-5-and-6-valloire/ – not that interesting I am afraid as we’re not doing much campervanning – just boarding!
