I’m writing this on day 8, so my memory is already hazy.. the days go quickly but seem like a million years ago by the next. I can’t believe I’ve already been here a week; in a way, it seems like 5 minutes, but equally in another way it seems like months.
Today we went on a trip to nearby Kaslo, a funny little town with old style buildings and a proper old steam boat to see.
We stopped off and had lunch by the lake, unfortunately the sun wasn’t on our side so it was pretty chilly but still a good view!
Rosie and I went on a walk around the lake whilst the others toured the boat. We met back up for a wander around the shops, and to observe the town.
On the way back we visited Ainsworth Hot Springs; where Aid, B, and myself avoided getting in and instead opted for observing/laughing at Rosie and Meld. The sign indicated 37 degrees, a touch warm for me anyway!
We stopped by a creek too on the way back; I have a fascination with water, and waterfalls, and there are tonnes around here because of the mountains, so it keeps me happy just watching the water flow.
Next up, a trip to Walmart, my first visit to the giant supermarket which was… big… like a Tesco Extra only bigger. We were there looking at the electrical stuff (Aid and I) and clothes (Rosie and B) for about 30-60 minutes, we didn’t even get on to the food!
Back to Safeway for a lasagne, garlic bread, and more Smirnoff Ice in cans. At this point I will thank the so many people that have pointed out I like to talk about food a lot; I didn’t get to this size by eating nothing 😉 One of my aims of the holiday was to experience the food too, so I’m afraid I will witter on about that. (okay, I’m just a fatty.)
