NP?
National Park, I guess. I've been there, too. In Lake Louise (either Banff or Jasper, I'm not sure).
In which province is it?

I quickly dug out my old itinerary: Lake Louise is in Banff NP, and Banff and Jasper NPs are in Alberta, close to the border to BC ( :) that's British Columbia). It's all in the Rocky Mountains with scenic high-altitude lakes and stuff. In winter quite good for skiing i guess.

have you never been anymore north than Den Helder? You've mist beautifull places like Groningen and the Wadden-eilanden

And less inspirering places like Winschoten en Delfzijl :? )
