DH haS booked Andorra (pas de la casa) as a first famiy ski trip for myself and DS 3 and 6yrs.
As we have never been (w/exception of DH) he has booked myself and DS 6 into beginners ski school and DS 3 into snowgarden/kindergarten.
Questions:
- Would you separate boys like this or would you keep 6yr old in snow garden? The beginners lesson mirrors mine for 2hrs each morning and the snow garden is 9-5pm and caters for 3-6yrs with a morning and PM skiing input - albeit probably nothing like the lessons we will have.
Are intention is NOT to leave boys in kindergarten all day anyways as it defeats 'family' holiday plan.
- what is a good base layer as i feel the cold and am sure my boys ill at this time of year? I have researched Icebreaker but its quite expensive...
- What goggles would you recommend my DS's?
- Would you agree the following is enough to bring?
FOR ME: Ski jacket /salopettes/gloves/base layer for top and bottom/snow boots/hats/lip balm/3x merino socks/normal jacket for walking around/choccy ;-)
fleece
DS's: As above but 2x mittens/gloves and maybe another pair of bottoms?
Apologies for the multi questions - i just wanted to start buying bits as sales are starting..
Thanks..
p.s - I dont want to spend too much of DH money but he has said he doesnt want us to be cold and end up with stuff that wont last..
