A short run from Lumby took us into a whole new world of Kamloops. As usual, we took the backroads to our destination, and what a change a few 100km makes. We went from mountainous, twisty and wet, to wide open and dry. Its semi-desert conditions were a strange contrast to the previous few days of travel. What was also strange was meeting up with our friends from Marathon, ON. Cheryl and Pat & Harper Lee (pup)\u00a0greeted us with open arms and a warm, soft bed. We were wined and dined, and got to spend many days reconnecting with them, and getting to know the Kamloops area.\u00a0I learned the beer is fantastic, the salmon run was cool, and Harper Lee is the cutest thing ever!<\/p>\n

\"IMGA0403\"<\/a>One day Pat suggested an outing to a nearby park to see the salmon run. It’s not a high year, but still pretty amazing to see these overly-large fish trying to fight their way up very shallow streams. We enjoyed the company immensely, and I enjoyed the local beer perhaps a bit too much. Even the vegan cuisine was excellent (thanks Cheryl), although I will say I had this insatiable desire for a hamburger the day we left \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
