Olympics - Are you excited?

Vancouver is about to embark on an amazing journey in just over three-month’s time... The 2010 Winter Olympics. We are getting daily reports on how our Canadian athletes are doing, updates on the brand new Olympic venues, the Olympic village - will it be done and the last to hit the news stands... the road closures.

I find that many people are nervous, pessimistic and negative about these road closures. For me, I just want to tell them, "Who cares!". This is one of the biggest events ever to hit Vancouver and we are concerned with how we are going to get around. Is it such a big deal to take public transit? To plan ahead and leave you car in the driveway. I agree that it will be hectic at sometimes but think of the bigger picture and what is actually happening in our city.

The Olympic Games!

Vancouver is being put on the map, we will be able to interact with countries from all over the world and be able to cheer for Canada in our home country.

Embrace the Olympics, make a plan for the two weeks and enjoy all that will be happening in our beautiful city!
