Lake Louise - One Big Shock in Banff National Park.
Blog: Living the Dream: RTW - 16 May 2010
Two years ago I wasn't aware of the existence of a Banff National Park in Alberta, Canada.

Canoe Lake Louise in Banff National Park, Alberta
Blog: Canada's Adventure Couple - 14 September 2009
While paddling Dave commented on what an "Authentic Canadian Moment" we were having - Canoeing in the Rocky's on the majestic Lake Louise.

We could only come up with one word over and over. Another writer on the drive Chris, used the word Dramatic to describe the drive while we were eating dinner the first night and he was right. Once those rocky mountains appeared we just couldn't get the word "dramatic" out of our heads.
