Monday, September 2 – Labor Day
Words cannot adequately describe the beauty that we experienced today!
We woke up very early to catch the first shuttle to Lake Louise. There were a very limited amount of tickets and with so many people, we wanted to be sure we didn’t miss it.
When we arrived, it was raining, but that did not deter us in the least. It was misty and cool but so beautiful. The clouds gave way to a brilliant view of the lake and Chateau Lake Louise – and then, it was a gorgeous day with perfectly clear views.
Our photos do not even do it justice. I have had photos of this location on my dream board for so many years and to see it in person was better than I ever imagined!
We hiked and walked along the trails beside the lake for several hours and then purchased shuttle tickets to Lake Moraine.
As the bus pulled up beside Lake Moraine, I was mesmerized. Such incredible beauty! The water is a brilliant teal green and crystal clear. It had turned into a beautiful day and the sun was reflecting off every surface. It was a photographer’s paradise.
I cannot describe my feelings as I hiked the paths up the rocks to the overlooks. The view was like nothing I have ever seen. We spent many hours enjoying the environment and soaking up the warm sun and amazing views. If you have ever wanted to see the Lake Louise area, I definitely suggest you add this to your bucket list!
We returned to our hostel. We were exhausted from the day’s adventures, but so very happy that we had the opportunity to see this amazing part of Canada.
