Time to start heading back towards Vancouver – of course the weather is brilliant today now we are headed back and we can see all the tops of the snowy mountains, inciting a flurry of photographs of areas we have already got photos of. Some impressive icefields are visible around Rogers Pass on the way back towards Revelstoke.
Near Rogers Pass, Glacier National Park |
We were originally going to stay in Kelowna, but it is a
really big town so we pushed on to Penticton. There we found the accommodation
on the lakeshore to be pretty busy as there are two festivals starting tomorrow
– Peach City Beach Cruise (lots of hot rods) and the Penticton Pacific
Northwest Elvis Festival. No sign of the king but apparently he is in the pool
a few doors down!
Dinner at Salty’s Beachouse Seafood restaurant was good,
followed by a stroll along the lakeshore.
Elvis is in town! |
A selection of very nice cars! |
Canada Geese, Lake Okanagon |
Penticton is the Peach City. Australians are not the only ones to adopt 'Big Things'! |
