Definitely agreed there Cristine!
I spent pretty much the entire 17 days glued to the TV whether it be at work or at home, and I was so immensely proud of our athletes. The Olympics brought this country together in a way I have never seen, and I hope the patriotism that came out from this country during the games does not go away!
It's funny, I was thinking about the games on my way to work, and in some strange way, maybe because of the broadcasting, maybe because it was here I don't know, it felt like I had actually been at the games and experienced it like those who were actually there. Watching the gold medal men's hockey game, it felt like I had the whole country sitting behind me!
It was a fantastic 17 days, and there is another run coming soon! Good luck to all of our Paralympic athletes!
GO CANADA GO!!!!

Agreed!
I couldn't walk away from my TV... it was just too much fun to watch!
And now we're getting ready for the Paralympics! The Opening and Closing ceremonies, as well as the sledge hockey games are almost entirely sold out, which is great to hear.
There is a slightly ironic aspect to the games... Cypress Mountain barely had enough snow and that was after snow was trucked in and brought in by helicopter, but lo and behold, now that the Olympics are over, Cypress Mountain has had so much snow that they have been able to reopen and they figure there is now enough snow to last until mid-April at least. Go figure!
