Snuffy and I went on a date to one of the Olympic Medal Ceremonies! We got there super early so we decided to walk along the seawall and this is what we saw:
What a gorgeous day!
Some of the Pavillions (the big Q is Quebec House, Sask House is beside it and Ontario house is there too)
Someone took the time to build hundreds of these Inukshuks (so spelt that wrong) all along the waterfront!
The guy on the chair used a megaphone to tell us which way to go even though there were only 3 of us there LOL!
We settled in our pretty good seats with our $4 bottle of water and $8 can of beer! There was a Northwest Territories show (lots of drumming and chanting) and then onto the medal ceremony for the women's halfpipe snowboard!
The bronze and silver medals went to the USA and Australia won gold!
Love the yellow slicker!
Then came the Theory of a Deadman concert that made me feel both young and old all at the same time! Young because this was the type of concert Snuffy and I used to go to - the kind your mother would just call noise LOL - metal! Old because, I didn't know any of the songs LOL!
Total blast, next week we are thinking of taking the girls to some of the pavillions, we shall see! Do you have the Olympic spirit?
