Hi PL

I was over there 2 weeks ago, had a great holiday, snow was good when we arrived but due to the warm weather got worse throughout the week. I'm not sure if they have had a big dump since.

We watched the Wales v Ireland game in a bar called Win Win (think it is more like a casino), quite a small place but lots of tvs with the games on. It is just around the corner from the church and under a hotel, it has torches outside it. The match should be on in a few places, there is another bar called Movie Bar (I think) that was showing the game as well.

If you are a beginner you should definitely try out the Ahorn side of the valley, nice slopes for learners. The Penken area has some great skiing but if you're advanced it is also definitely worth heading to the glacier (Hinter Tux) and checking out the bar at the bottom of the glacier lift for some apres ski before getting your bus home, it's mental!!

Anyway, hope that helps.
