An Olympic Diary

As we embark on a seventeen day Olympic journey,
the excitement mounts with the lighting of the cauldron on February 12, 2010
and the influx of visitors from all over the world.
The atmosphere in the city is festive and jovial with a sense of international friendship and camaraderie.
Many focal points of the city have become central public meeting places for art and entertainment
with nightly staged concerts and celebrations of the human spirit and atheletic achievements.

These are glimpses of venues, happenings and personal impressions of the Olympic experience in our city.
Images will be added daily. Hope you enjoy them and welcome to Vancouver...
