Yes the world definitely came to Vancouver, but Gary and I laid low. It was time to rest up for the big celebration. So Gary and I stayed home and watched the world come to us. Unfortunately half way through the day there was "BREAKING NEWS" and the sad news of a luger died on the track. What even brought it more into reality was the film of the fatal crash. It was horrendous. It was a sad beginning.
Then our friends came home and we made dinner and celebrated in style in front of the t.v. Hopefully all of you watched along with us. Val our friend had been to the dress rehearsal and so as we watched the Opening Ceremony she put it into 3D. She threw confiscated snow confetti on us from the rehearsal at the appropriate times and leaf confetti on the other more appropriate times. We totally enjoyed it and of course the pride on Val's face when they lit the caldron was well worth being here. It reminded us of the SLC Winter Games. HOORAY, LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!!!!
