It was a 30km climb up out of Osoyoos. We set off at 7:30am and had a tailwind (love the prevailing westerly); so it was a slow slog but my engine didn't overheat. I did need a couple of nectarines to get me to the top though.
The downhill was magic and 7km just melted away. We arrived in a small village called Rock Creek where there small Saturday Market was in full swing. We got a pack of 4 cinnamon rolls which we demolished while standing there - then Jimmy went back for more. There was a cute rustic coffee shop that used to be a school. Further down the road we met some cycle tourists heading in the opposite direction.
Now we are in a cute cute town called Greenwood; it is Western Themed; with nicely painted wooden buildings and hanging baskets spilling summer flowers. We're stopping for the free library internet before our last 40km to GrandForks where we are staying with some warmshowers hosts.
