Mountain Residence 1 consists of 2 buildings which are situated near the Glazne Hotel, only a short walk from the town centre. Both residences consist of more than 40 apartments... more...across 4 floors.
Advantages: cheap, traditional Bulgarian culture and buildings, excellent ski school Disadvantages: low altitude - though ski season usually runs from Dec - April
Bansko is in South West Bulgaria in the Pirin mountain region, a site protected by UNESCO. The transfer was just under 3 hours but it passed quickly both ways as the scenery is just so interesting.
We were skiing for the second time. If it had been last year as complete beginners I'm not sure I would have enjoyed it quite so much, although the ski school is excellent. For under £100 you get your skis, boots, sticks, 6 day lift pass and 4 hours a day tuition in small groups.
Advanced skiers claimed that the rating of the slopes is somewhat erratic.

When we arrived it was raining in the town so we were quite concerned about the conditions. We soon figured out that when it was raining lower down it was snowing on the mountain (I don't know if this is the case all season but it was when we were there). Plenty of powder, awesome riding.
I've seen too many people moaning about Bansko for petty reasons so I want to put the record straight. The only cons I think are worth mentioning are:
1. Get out early for the gondola or you could be in for a long wait
2. Some of the food isn ...

Introduction
Resident evil is a Science fiction horror film which was made in 2002 and was based on video games Resident evil 1 and resident evil 2.
Unfortunately, I am not a huge fan of computer games and I had never heard of the games until recently. And I did not see the film when it first came out...I was too young! (Bless)
However, when the third one came out, I was old enough, so after seeing it at the cinema, being impressed and having someone explain the first two parts to me I rented the first two on DVD.
