In Kelowna

Today we had an eventful day. We had to check out at 11am from the hostel. From there we went to safeway to buy 500ml milk, 6 bananas, 4 apples and 6 pizza buns. We also took lots of spoons from their self-serve deli department. Soon after, we used these spoons to have cereal in the safeway parking lot.

After, we drove to downtown kelowna and scootered and skateboarded along the lake wall. We had to pay 50 cents every hour. I put in a dollar which shoul d give me 2 hours but it only gave me 30 minutes. Darn!

Then after scootering (me) and skateboarding (jon), we drove to an “on the run” to get a large ice capp. MMMMMmm

We drove to the kelowna land and orchard for a tour to see the orchard but they only had tours at 11 and 1. By the time we arrived, it was 2:30pm. BOO. Jon and i did manage to try fuji apple cider, raven apple cider and anjour pear cider. Jon and i agreed that the fuji one was the best. Of course being asian, we just tasted it and left. Haha. As jon was driving to the orchard, he encountered a fierce bird. It was running on the ground like an ostrich towards him at top speed. Jon didn’t hit it but he claims that if he did, it would be the bird’s fault and he/she would be liable for any damages. He also wanted me to be his witness.

Afterwards, we drove 8km to get to myra canyon where there are 18 trestles. In 2003, the okanagan mountain fire destroyed or damaged many trestles but they have been restored. The canyon was quite an amazing view. The myra canyon section of the kettle valley railway was built in between 1912 to 1914 and was part of the “coast to kootenay” railway line that linked BC’S boundary district with the canadian pacific railway’s main line at hope. The last scheduled train was in 1973 and the tracks were removed in 1980. To create the railway in myra canyon, only 2 tunnels and 3 deep rock cuts were required.

Jon is having a breakdown in the car. He heard on the radio that couples should get married between 18months to 3 years of being together. Jon is grieving now.
We have now checked in at the oakanagan seasons resort. It reminds me of a motel but it is a resort and has a swimming, ping pong, foosball table, sauna, hot tube and free continental breakfast.

we finished having breakfast not too long ago. we used our hot plate and heated up canned campbell's clam chowder, and chef boyardee.

we're taking it easy tonight as we have 5 hours of driving to do tomorrow.

good night.
