I was duly deposited by Todd and Shan at the Kelowna Airport on Wednesday morning, and I managed to get a window seat on the plane.<br>Because of the ticket problems, I had some extra, last minute/cliffhanger checking in and getting of boarding passes to do in Calgary ...

... doch immerhin annaehernd. im auto unterwegs entlang dem lake okanagan musste ich feststellen, dass ich viel zu lange auf eine solche reise gewartet hatte - WOW! es war sensationell! die sonne zeigte sich von ihrer waermenden seite, der see war herrlich gruen und die waelder verwandelten die ufer in herbstliche goldkuesten. ich denke, die angehaengten fotos sprechen fuer sich..<br><br>unterwegs war ich immer wieder sprachlos ueber die schoenheit der ...

Well, after my last entry we went horse riding in Banff and had a steak fry out in the bush. The best mash potato I've ever had! Horse riding was fun, I had a beautiful horse named delta. That night we had a karaoke night/dress up as rock stars and divas. The location was at a hostel - but funny enough we were the only ones dressed up! Was a good night anyway. Leaving Banff the next day we went to a ...

From Kaslo we went to the Halcyon Hot Springs which is really beautiful but very commercial. Then we headed west to the Okanagon Valley, the banana belt for BC. It's got some great wines too.<br><br>We stopped on the way at Fauquier and played golf at yet another beautiful course.<br>

... statistics against their names. (EG - The bull called "Cotton eyed Joe", had a 97% buck rate, had severly injured 67% of all riders, killed 2% of riders, etc) The bulls get shipped all over the country in luxury....Only in Canada! It was a bit like watching Millwall vs Chelsea + death race 2000 all mixed in, blood all over the place.... We are off now to buy something that we don't really need. Ive uploaded a few pics for you. Bye for now...

... an extensive cross country ski trail network. babe did a great job finding a chalet for us to stay in, right next to everything, complete with a hot tub on the deck. the weekend consisted of - drinking, snowboarding, snowshoeing, drinking, plastic bagging down the tubing park in the middle of the night, snowboarding, snowshoeing, drinking, dancing, and a bit of hot tubbing squeezed in for good ...
