We drove across southern BC and then arrived in Kelowna about 3 so we stopped at Visitors center to get our map of the wine country. We stopped at a tasting room for hard cider. Great tasting. Reminded me of our trip to London. The only bad thing is I can't bring it back with us and they don't ship to the US. Yuck!!! We then traveled south out of Kelowna and visited two wineries. Oh my so beautiful and very good wines. There is a big lake here and the wineries are along side of it. Tempers the weather for the vines.
Checked into the hotel and had dinner. Its amazing how tired we are and not really doing anything. In the morning we will do some wineries. We visited The Jammery where local fruit is used to make all kinds of jellies and jams. Sampled and then bought. We traveled back across the Lake and visited more wineries. We have sampled some great wines. I am really bummed that we can't ship them home. We have bought several bottles and will take them homein our suitcase. Hopefully they will make it.
We then drove further north in the Lake Country and visited two more wineries and attemped to find another cidery but no luck.
Finished up our day driving up to Revelstoke. Here we are at another beautiful lodge Coastal View Lodge. Being off season you can get some really good rates. The drive up her put us in the Kootney Rockies.
