Speaking of that, wifey and I just committed to a few days in the Kootenays over the weekend.
Well West Kootenays actually so that's the Selkirk mountains.
But yeah, beautiful country.
I'm not sure what the best part of the world is, but it's either the W. Kootenays or the Lower Mainland
Just got back and lol at all the suicidal idiot drivers out there! We ate like royalty though and that's the main thing amirite? The two events were professionally catered, VERY good. We had some of the best Greek food ever at The Greek Oven in Castelgar (came highly recommended and did NOT disappoint). I had the roast lamb, wifey had the Chicken Souvlaki. Hard to believe a place like Castlegar would have a restaurant like that but hey...
We had breakfast at a fantastic little place in Nelson named Max and Irma's Kitchen (was that the place you were trying to remember Topper?). Eggs Benny: fresh baked cheese biscuits with brown-sugar-coated back bacon, tomatoes, hollandaise sauce... and freshly picked apricots on the side. To die for...
And of course we got us some yummy borscht...
Had a great bonfire party one night, ran into an old friend from Kelowna unexpectedly, drank alotta wine...
And oh yeah: great scenery.
