Met kangaroos, capybaras, and peacocks. Kelowna City Park Stroll: Parlour Ice Cream pit stop Souvenirs at Visitor Centre Quick lunch at Sprout Bread Penticton Detour: Saw the "famous" peach (just a lemonade stand—skip unless desperate for pics) Passed Cherry on Top Shake Shop (too full to try) Osoyoos Check-in: Dinner at MIK Food Studio (tiny but tasty eggplant rolls) Stayed at Watermark Beach Resort (lovely lakeside views) 🍒 Day 3: Desert Wonders & Cherry Picking Morning in Osoyoos: Breakfast at Gino’s Leisurely walk by Osoyoos Lake (so peaceful!) NK’MIP Desert Centre: Quick visit (snake-phobes beware 😅) Phantom Creek Estate: Stunning views—must-see! Cherry Picking at Steven’s Farm: $3/lb (red) | $4/lb (yellow) Manning Park Stop: Lightning Lake = serene & uncrowded Adorable ground squirrels! Smooth drive home via Highway 3 💡 Trip Tips: ✅ Book winery tastings ahead (Mission Hill fills fast!) ✅ Arrive early at Kangaroo Farm—animals nap by noon ✅ Skip Penticton’s "peach" unless you love overpriced lemonade #EscapeFromVancouver #OkanaganWeekend #NoOfficeAllowed
