In Kamloops we went to all the fun stores like Canadian Superstor, Wal-Mart, Chapters (including Starbucks), Staples and of course Costco (my favorite). You by everything in huge packages there. It's great fun. We also went to Jysk which I thought was a Swedish store, but I learned that it was Danish. Well, anyway it is Scandinavian. Jan had never been there before but is going again for sure. We saw Nancy something in the lamp store. She won some Olympic medal in alpine skiing at the 1968 Olympics (was that a winter Olympics?) She is still a huge roll model for young skiers here. I think almost every ski hill has a Nancy Green club for young skiers. Yesterday was another lazy day until it was time for this weeks kayaking. We went to Ruth Lake but only had time for 1 1/2 hours of kayaking since a thunderstorm was coming our way. We got away with just a little bit of rain in the end. I don't know what the plan is for the weekend it really depends on the weather. After a week of sunshine the weather is a bit crappy today. We might go to Sun Peak for Sunday. There is some quilting thing going on up there. I'm not so interested in that but it would be fun to see Sun Peaks though. I never got to see it in the winter time when I was here for my exchange and it sounds like it is a cool place. Jaimie is going to Vancouver Sunday to Monday since she has to take some finger print for her Visa or something like that. She is coming to Scotland and Glasgow to finish her law studies this fall. Hopefully she will come to Sweden for Christmas. Well it is time to get out there and see a little bit of 100 Mile!

Finally Friday!
I've already been here for a week. Tuesday was a quiet day. I'm on vacation right so I'm allowed to just relax, sun tan for a bit on the porch. They really have a wonderful porch with a beautiful view. You can see forest for miles and miles. Maybe I should add a picture of the house and view soon. In the late afternoon I went for ladies night at the tennis court. I don't enjoy doubles that much though, but in the end I got to play a single with my sister Jaimie. We tied but had quite a good game except our serves. On Wednesday Jan (my second mum) and I went to Kamloops two and a half hours south of 100 Mile. Since Jan took geography at University before marrying Mike we of course talked about how the language changes from wet and vegetation rich to very dry and vegetation poor. We only made one stop though to take pictures of this iron rich mountain/hill.
