I'm curious why you compared the non-compression Eagle Creek cubes against two compression cubes when they also have compression cubes

Yea it’s beautiful and grew up there in Kelowna. Osoyoos is great too but it’s hotter than Kelowna and hot weather is my only complaint there.

I'm told by someone that claims to know in the town I live about 20 miles away (Anacortes) that there is a way into the building by crawling UNDER it. There is a crawl space entrance somewhere on the building and you would end up in the basement and then could go up the stairs to the upper levels. I would like to try that sometime.

Kelowna has a huge University (UBCO) and shortage of housing big dev being built in downtown. You missed the quiet and eastern beaches and hiking area in Kelowna - next time check it out. There are so many areas to explore. Winter - cold, cloudy and skiing, snowshoeing, skating - a lot of outdoor activities.

Kelowna is not building up for the teasons you stated it us building up because the demand for housing is great. people want to move from the over crowded bigger cities to a smaller town / city. Also people moving from thecold east to a warmer climate. It does get much hotter in Kelowna- 35-40° C it hotter. There is so much in Kelowna that you didnt see like know mountain and Paul's tomb. Lake country beach winery restaurants fruit stands all water activity like boating ,skiing paddle boarding etc. you'd need a couple weeks to see it all

Ok the logic about the beach being busy is not true. Try swimming in bay area or monterey, both of which are significantly more south and colder than swimming at a beach in Vancouver. Also, that particular beach referenced at the start is on a lake. The water temperature for individual lakes varies wildly.

Safe travels. Great video, wishing you and your lovely family all the best!!! If you ever get a chance to head to Northern BC, out to the Coast (Prince Rupert) and then take the inside passage back down to Vancouver island or Seattle) you should do it. It's a fantastic voyage, driving north to Rupert on Hwy 16, then south via Ferry to Port Hardy, drive the length of the island and you're almost home.

I’m sorry but we gotta criminalize drugs, especially scrutinizing the dealers, who aren’t even homeless, but just taking advantage of the homeless who are addicted to the drugs. It’s crazy seeing dealers w luxury cars coming by homeless encampments selling drugs to vulnerable people. Enabling is not compassion, it’s enabling the criminals who get away with profiting off homeless people

@mr.orange8205 I stayed at Eddie Haymour's Castle one night and he told me his entire life story, including how he used to own Rattlesnake Island before the province stole it from him. If you've been on the island, you've seen the mini putting course he built as the cement forms still exist. He wanted to build a Moroccan style resort there but Bennet owned a mansion across the lake and didn't want his view to change. Poor guy got a raw deal but personally, I think Bennet did the right thing and left it undeveloped.

@mr.orange8205 You have no idea. He was then illegally deported back to Lebanon, and all his land was taken. Upset him so much that him and a couple of his cousins got themselves some guns and held the Canadian embassy hostage. When Trudeau heard what the Bennet government had done, Trudeau allowed him back in Canada and gave him his Peachland property back, which is where he built Castle Haymour and where I met him. He was quite a force of nature.

I've got to say, as someone who travels a lot and has tested a variety of packing cubes, your best bang for the buck are to find cubes that are light weight and thin like the Eagle Creek samples, but in the shape of the Bagail cubes. This provides the best room for packing and when you're not using them, you can stuff them all into the smaller cube and tuck them away in a small pocket of your bag. Light weight cubes tend to be the cheapest, you don't want fabric that's thick (it's like packing luggage into luggage and adds weight) and unyeilding, and you want cubes that you can pack in a jiff and be off and running. There is no reason to spend over $40-50 on a set of cubes.

So glad to come across this video. I live in Kelowna and would say it’s the prettiest place in Canada! Sprout coffee shop has the best bread around town! And you stayed in a perfect location, close to downtown and beaches! Parlor ice cream shop is the best as well! As for the apartments that are being built, we have extremely low availability for an apartment rentals and to fix this issue, the city decided to start building apartment buildings. Hopefully it will help with rental costs and availability. It is truly a very beautiful place, I wish you had a chance to go to Kalamalka lake, with deep green and turquoise waters… It is surely a place, where you can do skiing in the mountains and golfing in town the same day and be surrounded by wineries anywhere you go True Canadian gem❤️
