June 21st - 28th, 2012 RV Owners Seminar Trip

We again traveled to the Kelowna area for a weeks break. We stayed a night at Monck Provincial Park on Nicola Lake near Merrit, BC. Beautiful Campsite and not very busy. The next night we traveled north of Kelowna and spent a night at the Ellison Provincial Park (on a hill with trails down to the beach) South of Vernon. Day trips were made up the highway to Enderby, to Big White ski area and the Fintry Provincial Park (another nice campsite). The night before the RV College we stayed at a nice campsite on a bench overlooking several orchards.

The college programs were excellent as usual. We were joined this year by our friends Alex in his Class-B van and Karen in her fifth-wheel.

Time to catch up.

This has been nagging me for a while now. I have not posted for over a year! I'll try to fill in as much as I can.

Dec 18 - Tecate

To-day is our final day in Mexico. We crossed the border at Tecate which was experiencing a much longer border line-up than usual due to some lines being closed at the Tijuana border crossing.

This line went up this hill and then just as long down the other side.

This is a section of the border fence between Mexico and the USA.

Dec 17 - Valley de Guadalupe

Today we visited and had a tour of the LA Cetto Winery.

We stayed at the Rancho Sordo Mudo campsite which is operated by the people who run a school for the deaf children in Mexico.

Dec 16 - Vicente Guerrero

Our tour is coming to a close. Today we travelled to Vicente Guerrero and went out to the Baja Fiesta Restaurant for our final group dinner together.

Dec 15 - Catavina

Catavina is the only campsite that we stayed at both directions. We stayed at the Rancho Santa Inez. This time we visited some of the local cave paintings (over 7000 years old).

Dec 11 - 14 Bahia de los Angeles

Another beautiful beach for a few days. The weather was very variable. We had wind from many directions, rain and some sun. Apparantly it had not rained for 7 years. We did get a chance to go fishing one day. Here are some pictures.
