Reminiscences of February 2010

February 2010 will be remembered for a long time, especially in Vancouver & Canada as we invited the world to celebrate with us for 17 glorious days. Since pictures speak louder than words, I have posted some of my favourite memories below. These are my personal photos.

The crowds were an everyday occurrence. Everyone

was very pleasant and had a great party atmosphere.
