                    <description>After nearly 2 years of planning and  and preparing  our Olympic adventure seemed to go by in a flash.

This was really an ex</description>

                    <description>  We got up early to catch the bus to Whistler Creekside for the Men's slalom.  Cab at 545 to make sure we got to the bus on time on this cold morning  The men ski smoothly around the gates and go like the wind  We were hoping that Bode Miller would do well but he missed a gate on the first run. There were 104 skiiers competing in this race and they had to ski down the hill twice.  The skiie</description>

                    <description>This morning we saw the Women's freestyle aerials and they were fantastic.  They twist and turn and flip 30 feet and more in the air and most of time they land on their feet.  We rode the Sea Bus today which was a gigantic ferry boat for people only not for cars. It is about 4 times as wide as a Rapid and carries 400 people at a time and travels across the water very quickly.  So we have managed </description>

                    <description>We have been so busy travelling back and forth to Whistler the past 2 days that we haven't had a chance to update until now. Yesterday is the first day since we have been here that we saw real snow  Vancouver's weather is so mild that the Cherry Blossoms are blooming. Whistler is 2 hours North  of the City and is much colder  being so high in the snow covered mountains .  On Tuesday we were t</description>

                    <description>For some reason which shall remain a mystery we decided to dress alike today.  We looked like we were on some team.  If we were it would be the U. S. Shopping team and I know who would have taken the Gold and Silver. We had  fun in and around Vancouver today.  We visited Stanley Park and Capilano Suspension Bridge which is 230 Ft. Above the river and  is 437 ft. long and only 4 ft wide.  One of </description>

                    <description>Today we were total tourists No Olympic events to attend so we explored and enjoyed Vancouver.  Our Condo is 10 minutes from BC Place where the Opening Ceremony was held and just 10 minutes from the Olympic Cauldron which lights up the harbor.  We are just 100 yards from the waterfront where you can board little tiny ferry boats that hold only 10 people to go over to Grandville Island.  Vanco</description>

                    <description>Today was all about being wet and having to wait  We took 3 buses and a train to get to Cypress Mountain for The Women's Freestyle Moguls.  We waited outside in the rain for 2 hours to get the bus up to the mountain and it rained the entire time we were up there.  As wonderful and well organized asThe Opening ceremony was today was just the opposite.  There were many glitches with the transport</description>

                    <description>The luggage arrived just in time for us to leave for the Opening .  We walked from our Condo to BC Place which was only about 15 minutes away.  Along the way we saw a crowd gathering and without realizing it we ran right into the torch as it was being carried through the streets on its way to the opening ceremony. . . Talk about more luck than sense  The ceremony was absolutely spectacular </description>
