Harrison Hotsprings and Kelowna

Our night sleep in the back of the car was less than comfortable. By the time we had found a suitable spot to park up and got to bed it was already midnight. Despite the late night we were both awake at 5am with dawn breaking so drove 15 minutes to Cultus Lake to make our morning coffee.

Once we were back on the highway heading for Kelowna we made a last minute decision to veer off and check out Harrison Hot Springs. The hot springs themselves are nothing to rave about, but the detour turned into a great decision. The town is set on a stunning lake that we had a swim in and then had a nap on the shore in the sun. Now rejuvenated we dropped by a fruit stall for some fresh apricots and cherries and got back on the road to Kelowna.

I'd heard Kelowna was a beautiful town on a lake and it certainly didn't disappoint. Neither of us had heard of the Okanagan wine region so we were pleasantly surprised to find the valley full of wineries to check out. The lakefront of downtown was also a buzz with people and a waterfront market, even though it was a Tuesday afternoon.

We had a day and a half to wait till Deano flew in so we found a cheap camp over on the west side of the lake and gave ourselves a relaxed evening and a day to explore the town.Baca lagi
