I have wanted to visit the Okanagan Valley wine region of Canada for a few years now so a friend and I decided to set up a brief trip. Larry and I headed north to the Vancouver area to meet up with the other couple then we drove east to Kelowna. It is a 4-5 hour journey.
First thing the next morning we took a ride on the Kettle Valley steam railway. We rode the only remaining 10 miles of track on the restored 1912 locomotive the "3716".
There was some spectacular scenery ...
... plus on-board entertainment.
In the afternoon we met up with our tour guide, Sam, for a custom winery tour. He was very knowledgeable and drove us around in a cherry-red 1956 Cadillac Sedan de Ville that he is restoring himself.
We really enjoyed this!
And we weren't the only ones enjoying the fruit of the vine!
