We’ve spent the last few days taking in the Olympic sites and the gorgeous Vancouver sunshine. It hasn’t rained at all since we got here four days ago and we’re hoping the trend keeps up for a while. This city is abuzz with so much energy. Thousands of people walk the pedestrian downtown core, red everything is everywhere and there is a friendly, positive national pride in the air. It feels wonderful.
Last night, for the Canada-USA hockey game, we managed to finally get into a bar somewhere on Davie Street. Most places were packed hours before the game and we were lucky to get inside. And what a small small world it is because in that bar, I ran into a friend from GOOG! He too tried to find a place to watch and ended up there after a long search.
We lost, it was annoying (bad bad bad goaltending) and the bus ride home was quiet. So much for partying in the streets. =)
Below are some pics from the last few days. More to come!
