Hi again ...
I am still on the bus ... Patiently travelling to the PNE to collect Olympic Accreditation - a bit of a life goal for me.
While I travel - mostly standing (which with this driver's heavy foot is an Olympic susrvival match unto itself!) - I see people sitting with little Canadian flags - my guess is that they are souvenirs of one of the last legs of the Torch Relay that is being celebrated in Vancouver today.
As I stood and watched one particular ypung woman, I noticed her spinning the flags cardboard staff - thus twirling the paper red and white icon that we'll hopefully see being raised on podiums real soon.
As I watched, a smile graced the young woman's lips. And as she looked up - noticing that I had noticed her - she said "go Canada".
Its truly amazing what is gripping this city, the country - and a majority of the world today - as the sun sets - and we get ready to play host to the world.
As Nikky Yanofsky sings ... I believe -
Do you?
