wow...I am way behind on my blog entries. Life was busy last month with the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics which was an absolute blast. The Canadian spirit was unprecedented. I had never seen or experienced anything like that in my life. It was amazing. Sure made me proud to be Canadian. While initially it started out as the "glitch games", Vancouver came out shining in the end with the most golds ever won from any country in history in one Olympics (winter). I got to see Wayne Gretzky with the torch going down Georgia Street, heading towards the cauldron near Canada Place. The crowds were going nuts.
Also saw 2 hockey games (US vs. Norway, and the bronze medal game between Slovakia & Finland), and curling.

Of course, the biggest highlight for Canada was when Canada beat US for gold in the men's hockey. It was a close call but Sydney Crosby broke the tie in overtime. How a propos that Wayne Gretzky starts the games by lighting the cauldron, and Sid the Kid finishes it with the winning goal. It was one of the greatest moments in sports history...if not THEE greatest.

After the Olympics was over, boring. I went through major withdrawal. But I came out of it more proud to be Canadian than ever before.
