Kelowna is beautiful

I knew it was going to be a good trip when I was given some free Ben and Jerry's ice cream on my flight here! I arrived in Kelowna yesterday, and waiting for me were two beautiful faces - Noreen and David, my hosts. David (6) was wearing a bright green shirt and carrying his favorite spiderman toy when I arrived. The two quickly helped me with my luggage and got me to my race meeting.

We went out to eat at an amazing restaurant where I had the fresh catch of the day and cheesecake with gelato for dessert. Once we got home, Noreen and I sat on their porch overlooking the mountains and had some coffee and maple fudge while David munched on his root beer licorice.

This morning I woke up to farm fresh eggs, bacon, yogurt, and fresh fruit from their garden. After breakfast, I played catch with David and went to the race site.

I feel so blessed to be able to stay with this family in such a beautiful city!
