I saw the Kisser family exiting their RV in the SuperStore parking lot in Cranbrook, B.C., so I flagged them down to ask them a few questions about their summer travels.

Where’s home for you?

Karen: We live in Calgary, and we’re on our way to Lake Koocanusa (in southeastern B.C.) for a few days of boating before heading home from our vacation.

Where have you been on this holiday?

Darren: We went all the way to Parksville on Vancouver Island, with stops along the way.

What were some of the best things along the way?

Amy: The Cultus Lake waterpark!

Noah: The orcas out on the ocean!

Karen: We all loved Goldstream Provincial Park near Victoria for its bike trails and beauty.

What type of unit are you travelling in?

Karen: It’s a 36-foot 34B Bounder Classic by Fleetwood—we just picked it up in June.
