Banff National Park & Lake Louise in the summer

Banff National Park!

Canoeing in Lake Louise

Enjoying the breathtaking views

Found snow on my hike!

Treking about 7.5 K which took about 4.5 hours to get to the Agnes Tea House! I am sure some of you are thinking "oh 7K, no problem" HA! Hiking a MOUNTAIN, not only treking through SNOW PILES, running water, mud, & the 30+ sun beating on you. I highly recommend this hike and suggest LOTS of sunscreen, and water!

The Fairmont Lake Louise

 

Fresh Glacier water..took a drink as I was so dehydrated!

 

 Best tasting water in the world! Could not get any fresher than this!

I am BACK...Off to Calgary

It has almost been a year since I have written a blog post, and it has almost been a year since I have been back from Australia, and I am sad that I have stopped writing! Tonight I am off to Calgary to go to the 100th Calgary Stampede, and I feel that a new and exciting trip is the BEST way to start my blog again! Stay tuned!!
