Smoke on the KVR trail

The smoke didn't clear during the night. Instead we woke up to more smoke and the annoying smell of fire place. So we had a quiet morning, plenty of time for breakfast before we decided to head for the KVR trail and bike a short section of it. Mikkel guided us towards the trail head and found his very own. A 30 minute endurance hike on small unpaved paths going uphill most of the way. He didn't get too much credit but we made it to the trail. Then it was kind of flat going towards the small tunnel where we did some excellent photos of the lake and the valley last time we were here.Not today. Everything was grey and quiet.

We headed back towards town and left the bikes at our house. A short lunch and then we decided to go for a few more wine tastings on the way down to Penticton where Mark had to pick up his car. Mikkel was the dedicated driver, so he stayed sober, while Malene and Mark managed to do the tastings at Elephant Island, Poplar Grove and La Frenz. Good tastings and interesting wines.

We made it back to down town Penticton and had a swim in the lake before saying goodbye to Mark. He was heading back to Vancouver. We went back to our house and started to see if the back packs were still capable of holding all our stuff.

Last day in Canada tomorrow. Leaving for the US after and epic month of travels in British Colombia and Alberta.


Our nice AirBnB The Apple Grove Farmhouse in Naramata


Will we ever get to the KVR-Trail??



We found the KVR-trail
Absolutely no view
Malene and Mark




Just imagine apple orchards, vineyards and a lake in the background

Tasting different kinds of fruit wine










There really is a lake there behind the trees


How did our things ever fit in the backpacks?
