Sun/Mon August 25/26th 2013- Twin Lakes Rv Park, Penticton, BC

Sunday 25th in the morning we lingered over breakfast (fried tomatoes on toast … yumm!!) and headed over to play golf. What a beautiful course. No one in front, and no-one behind, we took our time and played a very relaxed game. Back at camp we made a Sunday roast lamb and roast potatoes, mint sauce, gravy etc etc ….. SO GOOD!!! Lovely day.We then went and watched more deer going through the RV park and eating apricots and apples off the trees in the park



Lovely course, great views

Deer Crossing... 12th Tee


Yummy Apricots

And Apples

Apricots are the favourite -- YUP!!!

Sheesh these things are high up












Monday 26th was spent driving down to Osoyoos, which is on the southern tip of the Okanagan Valley and on the northern tip of the Sonoran desert. After looking at a few RV parks, we ended up at The Inkameep Rv resort and immediately knew that this was our style of place. There is a desert cultural centre on site as well as a winery, a beach, and a golf course. The lake front sites were tempting but we chose a site with a view of the mountains and lots of open space. Booked from this Wednesday for 2 weeks. On the way back to camp we stopped and bought some fresh local fruit and a snack of homemade samosas (actually we stopped twice and did a samosa taste comparison … fun)  Many of the fruit farms are run by people originally from East India.

Back at camp Derek put on the ‘chef’s’ hat and BBQ’d up some steak, stir-fry veggies and fresh corn on the cob..... compliments to the chef!!!! A very successful day.  Janice’s back playing up a bit… kind of annoying for her.
