Relaxing at the Banff Upper Hot Springs

What better way to cap off a vacation in the Rockies than to take a dip in the +39 degrees Celsius water at Banff Upper Hot Springs. 

Ahh, so relaxing!  All those aches and pains seemed to disappear almost instantaneously!

While the view of the mountains was splendid, I was a bit disappointed that there was only the one pool.  I guess I was basing my expectations on my experiences at the thermal baths in Budapest, where there was a plethora of pools of varying temperatures to choose from.  Oh well... Despite the underwhelming size of the bathhouse, it was nice to just lay back and relax.
