Ski Leb Feb


After hearing much about the great skiing in Lebanon and as we want to see more of the Middle East than just the UAE and Oman, in February we snuck a way for a romantic long weekend of skiing in Myzaar just 45 minutes out of Beirut. The snow was plentiful, the sun was shining and the pistes were pretty clear of skiers which made for a very enjoyable few days on the mountain. As a former French colony the Lebanese are very stylish and in some ways more European than Arabic (at least those that are Christian). The apres ski at the Intercontinental Hotel was a real scene to behold which we named 'Shisha on Snow'. Some photos and video are linked below....Cheers D&T.
