Last September 2006, I went to visit a friend Tom in Kelowna for a couple of days. It took me 6 hours to drive with some breaks along the way to reach Kelowna. Kelowna has about 100 000 population and is famous for it's Okanagan Lake and the orchards of apples, pears and grapes . The grapes are used mainly for making wine. Legend has it that a friendly serpent "Ogopogo" lives at the bottom of the Lake. From time to time it comes to the surface of the lake, not to harm anybody, but to make sure everybody is allright. Tom took me around to see the orchards and pick some apples, that are crunchy and very sweet to bring back to Vancouver. We also went to see "Pyramid Winery" shown here on the photo overlooking the Lake, one of the biggest winery in Kelowna.
