Aretesina, Italia (Alps north of the Riviera and close to France)

Prato Nevoso, Italia

North of Monaco and far superior to Artesina - our new favorite ski resort.  Zaven took a private lesson from Thulio the old ski master, quite different to Austrian Ski School, but needed for confidence and attitude (I can hear both my sons now..."My parents were such dicks....making me go skiing in Italy, Swizerland and Austria, when all I wanted to do was beat my Pokemon Ranger gameboy game!") and man was it worth every euro. He came out smokin' ...Oh but he doesn't know that he is not quite ready to  retire from ski school even with a huge leap in ability..., we have him signed up for more lessons in January...
