Easter review: Skiing in Andorra

To go skiing in Andorra means that you will be pretty sure that you will have enough snow. The high mountains of the "Principat" of Andorra basically guarantee the skiers of snow.

We went to the area of Arinsal and La Massana this time to have an inside look during Easter. Staying in one of the La Massana Apartments (Giberga) gives you the freedom of hopping (well.. skiing actually) between Arinsal's ski area and La Massana's ski area, both being Vallnord.

Vallnord is an interesting ski area both for beginners and more advanced skiers. Due to the high temperatures during this year's Easter break it was not so very busy at the slopes nor in the villages. If you still want to go to ski in Andorra, be quick; the season ends in a week!

Feyenoord - Ajax

The cup final between the Dutch teams Feyenoord and Ajax will possibly be divided into two matches. One match in Rotterdam and one in Amsterdam.
The possibility for a double final match is only a option if there is not a garantee of enough safety during the match in the Rotterdam Kuip and if the supporters of Ajax are not allowed to come.
The match in Rotterdam will take place at the 25th of April.
