wow sounds fab!......welcome home

Also at Levilehto last week! Good week but sadly kids too young for us to enjoy any skiing (bar 2hrs on Sat!).
New Year was certainly different - couldn%26#39;t quite believe all those random fireworks - with the booze and the tobogganing - and ski lifts open till midnight!

mcmanus,
Did you also experience flight delays on Sunday? We only had a 45 minute drive home from Gatwick but still got home at 1am! Felt really sorry for anyone who had a longer trip home.

Was on the Gatwick flight on Sunday night that sat on board on the tarmac for over an hour at Kittila. We were returning from Saaariselka and had had 3 hour transfer that end and then drive to Gloucester this end, got in at 3 am! Had booked originally for Gatwick flight because it was going to Ivalo, then not enough passengers for that route. As all flights will be Kittala next year have booked to fly from Birmingham, under an hour to get home from there thank goodness! Children made it to school yesterday in body if not in mind!

earthtraveller,
That delay was the worst I%26#39;ve ever experienced! Plus no announcements whatsoever inside the airport, worse than the train services in the UK hehehe! At least we didn%26#39;t have a long drive home. I had been sensible and taken yesterday off work in case of flight delays. I%26#39;m so glad I did.
Your poor kids must have been exhausted!

our flights were back to manchester, no delays to mention.
forgot to add, we had some great boarding over at lift 6, the woods was a blast %26amp; their are several tracks / link routes from lift 7.
also saw several reindeers, around the fields at this lift.
also a very quite beginners run,with button lift.
|||
awesome, any more boarding goldmine hints?
|||
layzz -
ere goes, just boarding, front slope, left off the chair, a small pipe then into the wood, sledge track, several exit points with kickers.
right hand side, are the jumps %26amp; pipe.
lift 8, left hand side woods kickers %26amp; small jumps, alot of tree%26#39;s, a rush.
lift 14, after the bridge, into the woods, watch out for the fence.
lift 13, snow park, you will be their all day, jumps,kickers,woods, the sky%26#39;s the limit, just use your imagination.
look at all connecting routes, they can be difficult on boards, but normally lead to clean/fresh snow , in woods.
|||
fantastic - thanks muchly!
glad you had what sounds like an amazing time.
