Wow is it hot in the Okanagan Valley. On our way we stopped at Bridal Falls. It was a beautiful drive. Very different landscaping, brown grass and green trees. The lakes are a gorgeous aqua color and busy with lots of water sports. On Sunday we went to the Grey Monk Winery and tasted a few wines. Then we went to another one ?? and they were very snooty there. Didn't taste anything. We also went to a bee farm and saw the colonies of bees and tasted delicious honeys and mead. That's wine made with honey. We got a blueberry flavoured wine. Then we had lunch on the waterfront, again busy with boats. We visited the garden dedicated to Vernon's twin city, Tome, Miyagi, Japan. Off to Kalamalka Lake where there is a beach. Didn't go in as the water didn't look too clean, had an ice cream instead.

Nice pix. How much did you have to pay the turtles to pose like that?
Blueberry wine sounds nice. I've got some pumpkin wine from the Kawarthas. We can try it when you get back.
Keep on keepin' on!
