We love Sarah Silverman

Language warning, kids.

Almost time to head back to Vancouver! I have some serious cabin fever so it will be nice to get off the hill for a change of scenery. 

A few days ago we headed down to Kelowna to watch the Rockets take on the Chilliwack Bruins... Heading down to Happy Valley (aka "the carpark")

Killer icicles

Big White Main St.

All aboard the gondola

Casson and Marty

These fellas hang around the village from time to time.

Waiting for the coach. I never knew a bus could go so fast down the mountain. On the first corner we took, we all let out a collective 'woah' and the driver yelled "What? You want seatbelts? I only got one! Hahahahahaha!"

Littlest puppy

We missed getting a good shot of this sign. Apparently it's "The sexual exploitation of children awareness week" Awareness week only just made it on to the sign in tiny print on the end.

Downtown K-town. Home of the Ogopogo - yep, they have a lake monster, everyone has either seen it, or knows somebody who has. This city is pretty wealthy, there are lots of orchards and vineyards around the valley. It's a huge summer town with temps up to 40 celcius, there's heaps of wakeboarding and water sports going on.

Prospera Place, home of the Rockets. Marty didn't have a ticket but we managed to get him on the bus anyway. After he bought one at the window, someone handed us 3 free tickets which he sold to a scalper. Lucky lucky.

The Ogopogo

Smart Chenny could see with my glasses

Mmm popcorn with real butter

Beer through a straw, "Not actually that bad"

Driest cheeseburger on planet earth

Rockets won. Anyone wanting their team to win, please invite us to a game - we're on a winning streak (though Chenny doesn't work for the 'Pies)

I collect foam hands and the Rockets claw was a winner

Last night we went tubing...woo! The spin you down a hilly track in a tyre tube, more fun than it sounds. Tube selection:
 T

Wooly destroyers, probably not the best choice for tubing

Anna

Romantic - fake log fire

Anna and Sopho have come up for 3 days from Vancity. They've slept through a gas leak in the condo (and survived), have been snowboarding like champs and decided that all of the girls on the hill are slurries and all of the Aussies are rude slackers. There's a serious lack of work ethic here.

Having a quick break this arvo and heading out for the last night boarding session.
