This summer has been a busy one to say the least!
One of my highlights so far has been our camping trip to Banff and Jasper, Alberta with our new friends from Germany. I will share some pictures of our adventures with you, starting with this one. Everyone has seen several pictures of beautiful world renowned Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada; but how many have you seen of this glacier-fed lake with people swimming?! Most of our group went swimming and had a blast! Some stayed in the water for 20 to 30 minutes! I did not go in myself, because someone had to stay dry and take pictures. It had nothing to do with not wanting to freeze my butt off of course...(Although I did go in a few years back with a Brazilian friend we toured through the mountains)
There was nobody in the water when we arrived, and several people took pictures of this rare event. Interestingly enough, a few other brave people ventured in once they saw our group stay in for a bit, but nobody else stayed in for long.
I love this picture of everyone smiling and having fun, it's the epitome of cooling off in the summers heat!
Enjoy your summer!
