    I'm Canadian so Beaver Tails are nothing special but it's nice when tourists appreciate having one. You two look like you've been on a rejuvenation journey. Jason drinking much less. Alisa embracing your new gorgeous look. Both of you enjoying more outdoor and physical adventures. I have no right to be proud of ya'll...but I so am....lol.

    That scene when you were in the 8-man canoe was probably one of the most iconic scenes of Canadiana I've ever seen. The towering mountain backdrop in a canoe with the maple leaf flag in a shimmering turquoise lake! Just wow! Enjoy the rest of your time in our Great White North! 🇨🇦 🍁

    I'm Canadian, I moved to the US 12 yrs ago and haven't been back since, seeing you in one of my favorite parts of Canada made me homesick. Glad you enjoyed it, if you ever get a chance to drive from Banff to Vancouver its mind blowing, it feels like you're driving thru a picture. You just got a small taste of the Rockies in Banff, the further west you go the more spectacular it gets.

    Banff and Lake Louise are one of my favorite places on Earth. It is so beautiful there. I drove from Orlando to Alaska in 2019. I spent a couple days in Banff. Had to hit the hot springs while I was there. Cant wait to take my daughter there to see it.. John Denver would be the perfect music to play.

    Wow! just came across your videos of Vancouver to Banff via the Rocky Mountaineer. We just took this trip a week or two, just before yours. Except we were to go from Kamloops to Jasper but due to the wildfires we were diverted to Banff. (Note: Jasper lost power, water and other services but was restored a few days later after our trip.) RM added extra sightseeing trips and Oh, we got an extra night at Fairmont Banff Springs. No extra charge! I am reliving our trip through your video. Thank You!!

    Glad to see you had such a good time there. We went there about nine years ago (September). I talked my wife into going there -- she was a little reluctant, but once she was there, she fell in love with the area! Definitely should be on the bucket list for anyone who likes nature.

    • @karenzirk6800
      @karenzirk6800 2 роки тому +2

      Fine rock dust, produced by massive glaciers rubbing against bedrock, stays suspended in the water, reflecting light and creating the turquoise colour that Lake Louise is known for.

  • @Funsizecruiser

    • @davidmarshall718
      @davidmarshall718 2 роки тому

      If time and money allow, a top "must do" among many things in this region is the 140 mile long highway north from Lake Louise to the town of Jasper, in Jasper National Park. Called the Icefields Parkway, as many glaciers are visible from it and it connects the 2 largest and most famous National Parks in this region, the non-stop scenery matches or exceeds anything visible from any highway or railway in Western Canada, and is on a par with the great scenic roads of the World. Tour and Express buses run along it daily in summer or you can rent a car. Jasper Town, located in Jasper National Park, is similar to Banff Town but a little smaller, a lot quieter, and has an appearance and atmosphere of past decades to it, much of the downtown is facaded in the same rock-work as is Banff Town. Nearby Maligne Lake (mah-leen) is the largest glacial lake in the Rocky Mountain Parks and a boat tour takes people to world famous "Spirit Isle" nestled in the jade-green water surrounded by a galaxy of towering cliffs and steep-sided mountains, a true sanctuary apart from the rest of the World. See Google Images for "Maligne Lake".

    All I could think looking at Lake Louise and Banff is, “That’s it. I’m not buying another thing. I’m saving up to do Rocky Mountaineer.” Just might take several years lol. Glad to know solo travelers can do that canoe excursion. It looked amazing! The first video I saw of you two was your Bliss videos from 2+ years ago. Love following you now!!

    You guys are amazing ! Thank you for visiting my backyard. You captured the beauty of the Canadian Rockies perfectly. It brought tears to my eyes the magnificent scenery you got. We really take for granted what we have here in the west. Though we live near the mountains our hearts are on the ocean. If you come back to Canada 🇨🇦 ( Alberta ) You'd have a place to rest, we'd love to host you. Thank you again guys, this by far, is the best series of videos I have enjoyed the most. Cheers from the North 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦

    This is such a dream! So glad to have watched this, I also wanted to do solo travel to places like Maldives and Hawaii. I always think that travel is made easier when you have the best travel gear and essentials too. The bento bag from Nomad Lane is my best carry-on bag for travels like this. Thought I'd share it with you guys too!

    I live in Calgary and I've hiked most of the trails above Lake Louise, including some "secret " ones were we are the only hikers on the trial. The Lake looks even more beautiful from above. If you'd like help planing another trip to Alberta, get in touch. I'm not a travel agent, just a very enthusiastic fan of where I live. I'm a ski instructor and I hike and bike every day in the summer. I am so lucky to live here.

    So glad you were able to experience fall in the Canadian Rockies. On your next RM trip come see us in Jasper :) We have 2 different Rocky Mountaineer routes in and out of Jasper (a 2 day and a 3 day). Guests should definitely add on extra days in each destination though. If you are able, rent a car and take your time, there is so much to see.

  • @jimdgrousedogs

    Looks like a fun excursion on Lake Louise though I wonder if I would have gotten a little frustrated. I've paddled most of my life and have done several canoe trips in Canada so not being efficient with paddling is not something I'm used to anymore. I bet the views would have more than made up for any paddling issues.

    Everyone should get to do a "real" train trip. In my younger days I had the opportunity to travel between San Jose and LA several times. It was easy, relatively inexpensive, and a whole lot of fun. There was a two story car with windows all the way around and over. It was the bar car. I remember some of the seats and tables were set so you were looking out rather than forward. I could spread out my homework and pretend to do it while enjoying parts of the Calif coast that you can still only see from that train.
