We began with a wine tour of Nk Mip winery in Osoyoos, the first First Nation winery in Canada. We did tastings and a tour - at 11am in the morning:
Nk Mip was a great place, but if we're honest, the wine was a little too sour/dry for us.
We then visited three other wineries, buying bottles of our favourite Okanagan wine, including Desert Hills.
This was followed by a random driving mission (primarily to avoid the intense heat) north to Penticton for lunch, before we moved onto EC Manning National Park.
Amazingly we got a camping spot in Mule Deer campground inside the park. We were delighted - no more sleeping in the car for us.
With not much of the day left, we did a short hike up Dry Ridge Trail. Despite our limited efforts, we were rewarded with stunning views:
After the heat of the Okanagan, it felt great to be back in the mountains. We had a substantial dinner of tinned spaghetti and cherries before crashing in our tent.
