We woke up from our tent a little soaked, in Lake Louise, in Banff National Park today. Lake Louise is the most beauitful lake that we had ever seen. A bright blue lake surrounded by snowcapped peaks, just totally amazing. After we packed up and drove into dowtown Calgary we lucked out at the Best Western, getting basically an apartment for very cheap. We walked around Stephen Ave which is a big pedestrian walkway and saw Calgary tower which is basically Seattle's Spaceneedle except in Calgary.
The city of Calgary is goregous. It can be compared to Denver in which the rockies are to the west and visible. At the moment are back at the hotel and are updating a bit more before we go out on the town to an area called uptown. We are right along 17th street, also known as the "Red Mile". This area has many restaurants, bars and shops which will be great for people watching. We are having a great time in Calgary, the city is beauitful and defiently worth a visit.
