Tuesday Aug 27th - Kelowna and Wineries

Today was such an amazing day. One of those days when we sit back and just feel very blessed and lucky to be on this adventure of ours. We headed in to Kelowna and stopped on the way to look at Summerland and Peachland... both lovely towns. After checking out an RV resort (Holiday Park) on the North side of Kelowna... (which was nice, but a bit of an RV jungle - many permanent spots etc).. we decided that we wanted a 'winery lunch'. Heading South of Kelowna and after a brief stop at Quails Gate,

which looks lovely but was fully booked we back tracked a short way and stopped at Volcanic Winery for lunch and were totally blown away by the fantastic food. Wild Coho Salmon on a bed of curried risotto with fruit salsa, beet and other veggies..... every bite was a taste sensation. All quaffed down with a beautiful crisp Gewurztraminer.

We then drove around looking at properties... this area is to be taken seriously folks!!!! A stop at Mission Hill Winery confirmed all the reports of fabulous architecture and beautiful setting... a definite return is in the plan!!! 
The drive between Osoyoos and Keremeos yesterday was gorgeous, but today's drive between  Penticton and Kelowna also had us oohhing and aahhing our merry way North and again South. The drive takes you along several lakes with small mountains rising either side... very picturesque. It sure helps when the weather cooperates. A balmy 25 degrees today.
When we returned to camp we had a quick look at the deer and took a couple of photos before getting some snacks together, sat  outside and played a few games of Backgammon. Just a wonderful day. Looking forward to the next leg of our journey as we move to Inkameep RV Resort tomorrow.
