March 2009 - Les Arcs, France

We only had one week on the slopes this season and we were really lucky that the snow conditions were great and we could make the most of it. We arrived on Sunday early enough for the boys to get a few runs in on the slopes while the girls checked out the shops in the sun. The next few days saw thick snow and challenging conditions but towards the end of the week the sun came out again and we had a few brilliant days. Les Arcs wasn't the best resort we've been to and certainly not the best chalet but that's alacl easy to forget when you're out on the slopes and have great company so we thoroughly enjoyed the week overall.
