I can't say I'm a big fan of winter sports but so far the Winter Olympics have been amazing! I guess it really makes a difference if the games are in your town. I'm so behind in all my work because there's so much to do and see!
The Olympic cauldron is so close to my workplace, wow!I'm glad the complaints about the fence were addressed!
They warmed me up for Angelique Kidjo, the main reason I went to Granville Island on that night. I have loved her music since I was 12 years old! It was so amazing to see her live in person (for free!) and also to dance on stage with her (I don't know how that happened, that's so not like me!) And, yes, she sang my favourite song, Agolo!
I was contemplating on whether I should go to the Garou concert the next night since I don't know too many of his songs but his performance at the Opening Ceremony had me sold and I am so glad I went! He has such an amazing voice and tons of charm (I know Sheila would agree!). It was surprising to see former PM Jean Chretien there!
Next concert was Sam Roberts in Surrey. It seems that Surrey is full of really tall people:( I couldn't see much so I left early. This outrageous guy who was dancing at Jully Black's concert made my night! Saw Jully Black two days later at a much better venue. I swear, she is so under-rated! She is an amazing performer, funny and actually has talent. Music ain't dead!
I volunteered with my Church one evening, handing out hot chocolate to people waiting for the skytrain. Even though my backpack was heavy, it was such a fun evening!
Oh yeah, fireworks too!
