We woke up to a fine day which was just want we wanted cos we were driving to Kelowna today. Only 200kms or so past a few lakes and a couple of small towns. Some good views.
We arrived in Kelowna about 12:30 which meant we missed catching up with Melissa. So we had a few hours to kill anyway. First thing was lunch. Some of the others had been taken to a place called White Spot, a burger joint that is apparently a Canadian institution. It's called White Spot Triple O's, the triple o bit came from some car hop short hand which meant lots of extra everything. I thought it meant the onion rings were special (so I bought some) but it wasn't that.
After cruising and down the main drag where all the main shops were we spied a board shop. Bruce wanted to by some new jeans so we pulled in. Before you knew it Bruce had bought himself a new snowboard! An Arbor Element, very nice. We did get some jeans for him in the end too.
Met everyone at the airport and got our shuttle up to Big White. Didn't quite work out the way I had planned. I thought we would all be on the same shuttle but we weren't. Travel agent typically f'ed it up. Oh well.
It was well dark by the time we got up to the place but we made it and it is going to suit us I think.
Caught up with Dean, Michelle, Deb and Ryan after that at a Snowshoe Sams.
Pretty much a transition day but great to catch up with everyone and see what had been going on.
