Another day another medal, this time gold. Followed by a close scare from our men’s hockey team and another night full of spontaneous singing of O Canada, impromptu street hockey and dancing in the streets. Welcome to the carnival that is the 2010 winter Olympics. I’ve heard Aussies say they have never experienced a winter games like ours and that this rivals the Sydney games a decade ago. Not too shabby. So festive, so loud, so proud, congrats Vancouverites, now lets keep this party going for another week or so!
