Lovely Lake Louise
A view of Lake Louise from the bridge over the outlet on a bright autumn morning.
"Lake Louise is named after the Princess Louise Caroline Alberta (1848–1939), the fourth daughter of Queen Victoria and the wife of the Marquess of Lorne, who was the Governor General of Canada from 1878 to 1883.
The province of Alberta in Canada is named after her as well. Although the name "Louise" was originally planned for the province the Princess wished to honour her dead father, so her last name was chosen instead." wiki
Calling the province Louise would take some getting used to....Alberta seems to fit better IMHO.
Enjoy a wonderful Sunday!
