The Athletes are ready.
The City is bustling.
The Protesters are lined up to crash the party.
The Olympics are here.
I spent my morning following the torch. I had the honor of getting to hold it high, and on my way around the city I also met two of Switzerland’s Women’s Hockey players Anja Stiefel and Katrin Nabholz. Vancity is an absolutely thrilling place to be right now. It’s a pretty amazing sight to see all the fans, you and old, gathering the roadsides in support of the event, and team Canada of course..
Then the parade began..
Here is the route for the final portion of the relay tomorrow:
The opening ceremonies are fast approaching and the city is ready and waiting..
What else is left to say but; LET THE GAMES BEGIN!
number of view: 596
Great pictures and commentary on the Olympics. Keep it up. It’s like being there with you.
Who’s the cute Canasian torch bearer?

the Pens fans obviously need to step up their adoration for the black and gold after seeing this. You are just the man to rally the women of Pen’s nation to do better. It’s almost the playoffs ….
unfortunately VANOC doesnt have a list of all the torch bearers and times, so i’m not sure who she is exactly. but she was very friendly and allowd me to hold the torch, to which i am eternally greatful.
[...] Good times with the Torch: [...]
