Today started out very very cold. We did wait until 9:00 am to leave but even then it was only 2^C. It seemed to be getting colder in Quesnel instead of warmer. (That was due to the fact that Quesnel was fogged in.) We stopped in Quesnel for some breakfast and to warm up a bit. By the time we left it was noticeably warmer. And by the time we got to Cache Creek we could take off a few layers of clothes. We stopped in Cach Creek for pie and to play some Keno. We didn't win anything while we were sitting there, but we haven't checked out tickets since. Maybe we'll get lucky.

We stopped at the Harley shop in Kamloops to do some shopping. We stopped there specifically because we knew they carried "purple slice", a new bike cleaner my mom discovered this season. My mom also bough me a seat pad. its called an Airhawk. I think I'll like it a lot once I get the air level right. We'll see what happens throughout the rest of the trip.

We are now at uncle Bill and aunt Shirley's hous in Salmon Arm. We got in at about 6:15 pm (late for dinner but they forgave us). We enjoyed a nece evening with them and now we are off to bed.
