Banff and Elk Island National Parks


 
Banff

Last Saturday, I went to Banff and got to see Lake Louise! It was simply gorgeous and too beautiful for my eyes. The water was crystal blue and behind the lake was a spectacular snow topped mountain. Fortunately, I found out that my camera had a panorama option and took a few of those. I took photos of the lake in different angles so many times but couldn't get enough.




And the town of Banff was so quaint and beautiful as well! A major tourist attraction.









Elk Island
 
And then today, I went to Elk Island National Park and was hoping to see some wildlife, but only got to see Bison, which I guess was a great experience as well. There was actually one right on the trail we were walking but walked away once it saw us approaching. They're huge! But pretty docile I think. Apart from that, and maybe a beaver and a squirrel, we were not able to see anymore wildlife. Bummer.





And the weather was really quite cold today, not a good day to be outdoors, though the onslaught of Fall did bring pretty colours along with it.
