Olympic Games

After arriving in Vancouver, we did a bit more walking than planned, in a bit more rain than expected but eventually found 2 comfortable bar stools in a dry place to watch the Canada hockey game.
Taking in our first game...surrounded by Slovakian fans decked out in blue.

Our seats were directly next to the broadcasting desk - and everyone wanted to squeeze by and get their photos with these guys.

Bennett stayed home with Grandma and Grandpa. We received this picture of him blowing us a kiss that morning and looked at it many times during the day - here Bennett is enjoying the game.

Goooooo USA! We win!

Yeah!!

Leave it to Brent to find his Olympic souvenir at Costco (his sweatshirt is from the Vancouver Costco, steps from the stadium)

The Olympic Cauldron on the waterfront.

The city was electric and the Canadian patriotism was incredible.

Bennett happy to be home with Dad and getting into the spirit!
