Vancouver 2010 OLYMPICS

Seth and I were there... in Vancouver! Seth went up on a Friday evening with his buddy, Taylor, to watch a hockey game, Latvia vs. Czech Republic. He said the game itself wasn't that great, mostly because in the Olympics the hockey players aren't allowed to fight and because Latvia was no good but it was just cool to be there at the games. On Saturday Seth and I drove up together to check out the place and try to meet some famous athletes. We did see the Russian figure skater who took silver but he looked kind of mad so we didn't want to bother him. We saw the torches burning, saw millions and millions of people everywhere, and while we were eating dinner and desert we watched the short track speed skaters compete. It was a great Saturday, we spent hours walking through the city and plan to go back after the Olympics are over and there aren't so many people there.


This was as close to the torches we wanted to get, there were way way way too many people and long lines to get to the balcony view



We also went to the China town there and ate dinner in the International Center
