During the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics, I had the chance to go and partake in some of the festivities that took place surrounding the men’s gold medal hockey game. During my visit there I saw people laughing, screaming, crying, standing, sitting, climbing, hugging, hi-fiveing, cheering, singing, dancing and watching. It was the most intense emotional experience somebody could have. If you were there, you know what I am talking about. Something, Canadian, was in the air that day. People were extra friendly and I heard the words “please”, “excuse me”, and “sorry” more than one person could say in a lifetime. I had the pleasure of meeting a few people while we were there and connecting (photographically) with so many on what proved to be a very patriotic day.

I turned on my computer this morning thinking that I was only going to post once today and leave it at that. However, when I opened up Google Reader, I found this link to Rob Galbraith’s post. It’s about Vancouver and the 2010 Olympic Games. It’s a Time Lapse Video and it’s really cool. Seriously. Watch it. Full screen.

Right? Cool. That’s it.
