Beirut - 16th to 19th of February 2011

Straight back from New Zealand, a re-pack, and Warren was off to Beirut for skiing weekend with the boys. Beirut is a 3 hour flight north from Dubai, and the ski field about 1.5 hours up the mountain from there. Day 1 was rediculous, too much snow to do anything, blizzard conditions and only the baby slope to keep us occupied. But that meant days 2 and 3 were amazing skiing, lots of snow and not too many people since it wasn't the weekend. Day 4 was a bit of a write-off, the snow too slushy and the people too pushy. Overall a great weekend and definitely worth the trip, surprisingly good skiing, and a decent sized area that kept us busy for a good three days.
