Every Saturday in various parks in Lake Country, an area just outside in Kelowna, there is a family day...games, bouncy castles, live music and other stuff. So, Don and Judy asked us to go to the family day to be held at the beach nearest to their house. Also, as an added bonus, the music was to be an Abba tribute act...what more could I ask for! The beach turned out to be beautiful, playground, swims in the lake, soccer, the kids were in heaven, especially Lucy who had Judy's undivided attention for the day! I was really looking forward to Abba, and so was bitterly disappointed to discover they were a couple of fat Kelowna housewives in silver platform boots and mini skirts, thinking they could sing like the legendary Anfridthingy and Annasomething else! No matter, lots of dancing and beer helped with that!
We thought it was such a pretty place that we went back the following weekend with some Big Whiters! Next to the beach there's a heritage house, and seeing as we were there, we thought we'd check it out, so....this'll make you laugh! It's a house next to the lake, lived in by a family who emigrated from the U.K, bought the land, built a house, planted an orchard and raised a family there. The house is open to the public 2 days a week and is celebrated for it's history and age...guess when it was built...1912!!!
View from the steps of the house...what a spot!
