Olympics


We arrived in Vancouver- Corina making sure we knew where we were

The day was just gorgeous, we walked all the way along the seawall to Yale town and then took the water taxi to Granville Island to Atlantic Canada House

Where I ate a raw oyster

And we saw a lovely show

Corina posed with Swiss Goad

Then it was off to downtown and the torch and Robeson Square.. but we made sure we took time to smell the flowers!!

Off to the Ice cube.. that after walking Robeson street taking that all in, riding a bobsled and going in and straight out of Irish House
Sitting on Johnny Canucks lap to get us in the hockey spirit.. because then it was off to

The Cup.. we didn't plan to see it.. but hey whats another line up?

Then we celebrated our dutch heritage.. I snuck through the dutch passport holding lineup with this fantastic family.. who would really wait 4hours to drink beer in a hockey arena... well apparently alot of people.. but didn't we walked right up and in!! Yeah because no matter how good the croquets and cold the coke.. four hours is ridiculous


Stephan the great.. we all were posing with this guys shirt for pics.. just as I am setting up for my pics he turns around and we have to try explain what we are doing... not good.. the guy beside him thought it was hilarious!!

  2. Love our pic with Johnny Canuck...turned out great. But i was looking at my pic with the Swiss goat, and if you look at the mountains, I probably have a winter camping pic with almost the same background. So we live in a beautiful winter wonderland :D
