Vancouver Winter Games




It is just days before the XXI Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver. Can't believe that seven years after the announcement was made that the Games are nearly here!

Initially, I had no plans to attend any Olympic events, cost being one of the main considerations. However, there is something for everyone. I will actually be attending a few Olympic events as well as free entertainment which is being offered around the city and surrounding suburbs.

Have purchased a few Olympic shirts, hat, scarf, mittens, and fleece - I'm ready. Hopefully, the weather will actually reflect that it's winter as currently it has felt more like spring.

Olympic fever is spreading. It is nice to see that we are all coming together and celebrating this truly once-in-a-lifetime event. There are not too many cities or countries who can boast that they were host to the world for the Olympics.

Let the Games begin!
