Crystal

Has anybody travelled with Crystal this year?

If so do you know who was the local agent in Yllas?

we didn%26#39;t go with crystel but doobedoo did, she should be along soon otherwise PM her

The local reps were.. Doug, in my experience %26#39;w.a.f.u%26#39;.. I%26#39;ll explain that in a pm if you need me to!

.. and Amy, she was new to the job and slow to warm but with some encouragement really pulled out the stops at the end. A caring and hard working girl on a vertical learning curve.

There was another new young girl there, who%26#39;s name escapes me for the minute but seemed keen and friendly.

In the end they respond better to the carrot than the stick!

Out of interest, my advice to Yllas virgins is this, read the maps, get a bus timetable, get a plastic sledge and hold on to it. Have fun being self sufficient, treat it as the amazing adventure it is and explore. The holiday is a wonder, the place is magical the people make you want to stay. I%26#39;m missing it snow much!.. despite the ankle!

lol

the hoppy skiier!

Doobidoo do you know what the crystal thermal clothing is like? did anyone wear it?

Don%26#39;t know, didn%26#39;t use it, had my own.. but I think they got it from the Lapland Safari office and from what people said it was good, warm and comfy, although the sizing was a little hit and miss. They are also all-in-ones, so when you stop for coffee you don%26#39;t take your jacket off so much as un-peel a layer and tie it around your middle!

One lady commented that not being tall was a bit of a problem as they are quite long in the body; the crotch of hers hung a little low! and she had to keep hoiking it up before she hurled herself down another ski slope!

Oh and you all look the same.. we can spot you a mile off!

But I can see the attraction, you don%26#39;t worry about damage to them , cleaning them or packing the buggers into the case on the last night a little out of focus from a %26#39;lets- finish-off-the-Jack Daniels-so-I-don%26#39;t-have-to-carry-it%26#39; session!

Hoppy New Year

Doobidoo
