Day 11: Creston to Cranbrook

Km today: 110 km

We began this day a little later than usual since we all had to tour the Kootney Brewery. When are we ever going to be in Creston again?



So after the tour, a short interview with the Creston Advance (newspaper) we headed off to the Chocolate orchard (another bakery/confectionary) for a second breakfast and loaded our bikes with our gear. Then just before we leave the ...Cams hook for his trailer is no where to be found. With some kind help from the managers at th Kozy RV camp a new bolt to hook on Cams trailer is devised and off we go.

A small town called Yahk along the way had a really neat soap shop with goats on the roof!



So we ended up leaving the campground at 12:00pm. Thsi was deffinately a late start for a 110 km day and a time zone change so we pushed our legs hard all day.



The push was definately worth it. Lynne and Steve Newhouse in Cranbrook BC were kind enough to open their doors to us and feed us and provide beds for us to sleep in. Yeah, no mosquito filled campground or tent tonight!



Special Thanks:
Lynne, Steve and Dan thank-you so much for your hospitality.
After 11 days on the road, WOW a warm place to stay is truly appreciated.
