Monday we will be starting the the next leg of our journey. Amanda and I will be leaving for the interior of British Columbia, the Okanagan Valley. If you have ever been to the Sonora Desert of Western USA, you would recognize this area with it's rolling hills, mesas, sage brush and cattle ranches. The Okanagan Valley is one of the warmest regions in all of Canada. The Okanagan is comprised of the major centres of Kelowna, Penticton, Vernon and Osoyoos. During the summer months, visitors are offered countless sandy beaches, hot sun, and a variety of outdoor and water activities. Okanagan Lake provides the valley not only with excellent swimming but is also a spectacular backdrop to the golf courses and wineries and popular ski resorts located in the rolling hills of the valley. The Okanagan is considered a premiere wine valley and a tour of the local wineries is a must for anyone visiting the region.
