Above is a photo as we approach the border crossing at Osoyoos, BC. The questions from the border agent were easy, and we were sent on our way within 5 minutes. We stopped at the visitor center for information on BC, then headed on to Oliver where we stopped at a bank to get our US money changed for Canadian. The exchange rate was about $1.10 for our $1.00.
We stopped for a quick lunch at a wide spot along the middle section of Okanagon Lake then continued on our way. The following photo is of a dome we saw which looked like something from outer space with the cloud surrounding it. It was a part of the Highland Valley Copper Mine which covered miles on north of the original dome sighting.
After a long day, we finally found a campground in Cache Creek, BC called Brookside Campsite. The rate was $30.00 Canadian. Although we didn't use the water hookup, they did offer 30amp power, water, and septic at a large pull through site. They also have free wi-fi so that we didn't need to set up our internet dish and we decided to do without tv for the night. That works out great for an early start tomorrow.
