Girlz Weekend Whoo Whoo June 10-13,2010



I had the opportunity to head out with the girlz for a weekend away. We headed up to Osoyoos to stay at Spirit Ridge and enjoy relaxation and a few wine tours. I was picked up on Thursday evening and joined a van that was filling up quickly. Our friend Shannon was a final pick up and we were on our way. We arrived at our destination very late in the evening, some munching on some junk food and at little chat was had before we retired to bed.
I was schedualed to sleep in but awoke at 7:30am ready for the day. The girlz had some spa appointments throughout the morning. Leiko & I enjoyed a quick workout before the commencing of eating began. We chatted hung around, did our nails then headed in to town to a few boutiques. On the way back we pick up dinner at a local greek restaurant. In addition we swung by DQ for and ice cream cake to celebrate a year of birthdays between all of us. No sooner were we back in our room was the blender put to the test with a few batches of Margaritas. Laura was kind enough to supply a lovely bottle of champagne to ring in all of our well wishes and bless our group.
Laughter, tears and a wonderful evening followed. We even enjoyed the pool and hot tub in the later half of the evening.
The following morning we enjoyed some relaxing by the pool. Then we headed up to get ready for our late afternoon wine tour with our driver and tour guide Kent. We enjoyed a wide variety of wines and information about each winery. More laughter and fun followed the afternoon and early evening. When Kent returned us safe and sound, we made a quick change and refresh. We had reservations at the restaurant on site,delicious food was enjoyed by all of us. Then back to our room to get our yoga pants on as fast as possible!
Our final morning was spent lounging by the poolside prolonging our time to head back to reality.
