So...the entire point of our trip to Canada was to go to Okanagan Lake to look for Ogopogo! Ogopogo is Canada's Loch Ness Monster!  Jake grew up being fascinated about Loch Ness Monsters and I thought it would be fun to surprise him on a trip to Canada.  When I told him what we were going to do in Canada, he was so excited and kinda in shock!  I think he never realized that one day his book reading adventures would come to life!

We had so much fun exploring around the lake and exploring!  It was chilly out, so we made sure to bundle up!  After we explored we went into town and ate at Quails Gate Vineyard for lunch!  Then we went back to the lake... and someone did the Polar Bear Plunge.... check out our vlog and see who it was ;)

Thanks for stopping by today! Hope you have an amazing rest of the week!

After we had a visit to the Capilano Suspension Bridge Park, we headed out on the road for Kelowna.  This drive from Vancouver to Kelowna was our favorite part of the trip!  We have never had a drive that was so gorgeous the entire time!  Every window we looked out, the views were breath taking!

It was raining off and on.  It created the perfect driving ambience. It was so stunning outside that instead of taking 4 hours to get to Kelowna, it took us 7 hours because we had so much fun going on random little hikes and stopping to take pictures.

If you are ever taking a trip to Canada, get a rental car and go for a drive!  No joke, it will be amazing!  It is so gorgeous all around Canada and there are hidden gems to see every where you go!  Just google little cities you know you will be passing by on your drive and you will be surprised at all the amazing things there are to do.  On our drive back to Vancouver we googled the small towns we would be in and found some really cool tunnels and waterfalls!  Can't wait to share more with you all soon!

A FEW TIPS FOR A FUN ROAD TRIP:
-Bring a water bottle.  I always have a water bottle with me where ever we go!  It has come in handy so many times!
-Pack Treats! Make sure to bring some heathy snacks so you don't feel sick when you get to you destination!
-Have comfy footwear that can get dirty.  If you are like us and like to explore, make sure to have shoes that you don't mind getting dirty if you want to go out and walk around.
-Bring your chargers.  I get a lot of work done in the car on road trips and make sure I have a car charger for my laptop and phone that work in the car.
-Bring a cable for your phone to listen to music and create a great road trip playlist.  I have a few playlists on my phone that are always a go-to on road trips.  I keep them on my phone all the time so we always have some great tunes to listen too.
-Google before hand things to do in the small towns you will passing through to see if there is anywhere you want to stop!
-Keep an umbrella in the car.  You never know what the weather could be like for the day :)
-Keep a camera in the front seat on the passenger side.  (So the passenger can take photos :) If you are in the back country, you may never know what you may see!  I have been so glad we had a camera out and ready to go for animal sightings!

If you are taking your own car on a road trip, and not a rental car, make sure your car is in good shape to leave for an adventure.  We also like to have a triple AAA card with us, and sleeping bags in the car incase the weather ever turns bad or we get tired on the road!

Thanks for stopping by today! Have a wonderful day!

Isn't this place amazing?!  These pictures do not do it justice!  The Capilano Suspension Bridge Park is located just a few kilometers from Vancouver City.  If you are every staying in Vancouver City, the quick drive is worth it!  The park is located inside a rainforest, and it happened to be pouring rain when we were there so that was very fitting :)

A FEW TIPS TO HAVE A GREAT TIME AT THE PARK:
-Get there when the park opens.  As the day goes on..even if its rainy, it gets crowded.  Get there early so you can get some awesome photos with no one in them and have the place to your self.

-Plan on spending a few hours here.  The park is huge and is a great place to walk around and get you step count in for the day!  There are a few little eateries on the property so if you get hungry you can eat there. Or you can eat right across the street like we did at The Cactus Club Cafe after the park :)

-Its often rainy here so come prepared.  They do have free ponchos for guests next to the entrance that work great, but I would also bring an umbrella.

-If you are a AAA member, bring you card, they have a discount for that!

Thanks for stopping by today! Hope you have a lovely week!  Also, make sure to check out our YouTube page this week and subscribe.  We have lots of fun videos coming up!  :)

Since Valentines is this week, we have been trying to add a touch of red or pink to our outfits everyday!  We wore these looks on Monday evening on a date night to go see Kung Fu Panda 3.  We are big fans of movie night dates.  Sometimes a simple evening of seeing a fun film and popcorn hits the spot!

Thanks for stopping by today!  Have a great Wednesday :)
