Revelstoke, BC to Kamloops, BC

We drove straight through to Kamloops because we decided to sleep in so we didn't leave till 11:00am.  Stopped to charge Tessie, which is also where the Information center is located.  We went in and talked with a very nice young lady about things to do in Kamloops.  It being 2:30pm by the time we arrived at our hotel, we decided to go have lunch/dinner at the recommended Tobiano Golf Course.   

When we arrived at Tobiano Golf Course, checked out the Pro Shop, got a scorecard and bought a logo ball. We would have loved to play this course but, the weather was very iffy.  Thunderstorms in these mountain range can crop up in a no time.  Took our seat in the dining area.  We were ordering our meal and I asked the waitress about the Canadians putting gravy on there fries.  She told us we needed to try it, it's called Poutine.  After talking about it for a bit, we went ahead and ordered as a appetizer.  When served to us, both of us were saying that's a meal for the two of us.  Our Poutine was shredded cheese (should be Cheese Curds but, she thought it would be better for us Americans to have with shredded cheese), brown gravy and fries.  It was sooooo good we forgot to take the picture till after we were done.  Poutine is a dish that includes French Fries, Cheese  Curds topped with Brown Gravy.  There are so many varieties of Poutine dishes, even McDonald's has it on there menu called McPoutine...ha ha  For our meal, I had the Chicken Wrap and Johnny had the Beef Dip.  We rolled out of the restaurant, it was so good and our waitress provided excellent service. 

With booking our rooms at the last minute and it being summer in Canada, it's becoming harder to get our eligible hotel upgrades.  When we checked into the Double Tree we asked for an upgrade and there were no suites available.  We were still able to get the top floor with the best view.  They gave us 2 free drink tickets and full buffet breakfast.  When we entered our room we were greeted with a small fruit display and bottle of champagne.  What a nice touch to our stay.
