What an amazing few days! The sun is with us every step of the way. Our first stop was China Ridge. Rick and I have skied there with fresh powder. The view is incredible and not even a single person can be seen. It was a trip I will never forget. We thought it would be great to experience the same terrain on our bikes.
Next stop was Blue Mountain Winery. It is definitely one of my favourite wineries in the Okanagan. Stocked up with some Pino Gris, Chardonnay and their Brut is supposed to be fabulous. Back on the bikes and pedaled through orchards, vineyards and vast farms.
It’s the first time we have been to the Okanagan in the fall and I was so amazed by the abundance; apples, grapes, peaches and red peppers.
The sites and smells were amazing. We had planned to bike the Kettle Valley Railway trail but unfortunately 2 flat tires forced us to stroke that off our list of activities. A quick visit with good friends, loaded up the car with fruit and veggies and back home in time for dinner on the deck.
Just looking at your pictures amazes me that this is where I have made my home. I know it’s all around me and I do appreciate every single thing about the Okanagan, but somehow looks even more stunning than my everyday.
Thank you for visiting us; always good to see you.
