Banff, Alberta, Canada (nearby scenes)
In 2013 I took a rail tour of Canada and one of the locations visited was Banff in Alberta. Although I previously posted a Set of the St. George's in the Pines church (

Excellent images of a very beautiful area. Thank you for sharing this with us. Also, that is one huge hotel. There must be hundreds of rooms so there must be a large amount of people who visit this area. Did you stay there?
Bruce.
Hi, riderxlx. Thanks for the nice comment, I'm happy you liked them. No, I didn't stay at the big Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel--the tour group stayed at the Rimrock Resort Hotel closer to town.
Wasabi, thanks for coming and for the 3 thumbs up!
J-SPEIGHT, nice to see you. Thanks for the nice comment! I'm glad you liked it.
Great set of captures of Banff. They bring back many memories.
My wife and I resided at the Fairmont some years ago. Incredibly large hotel with some great amenities.
