Our second airplane
Our second day in Vancouver, and I am having a great time. On our first day, most of which was spent in airplanes and airports, we got to Vancouver at 6:30 pm. The first plane ride was very slow, while the second seemed very short.
Day 2
Today, the first thing we did was to go a visit the Olympic flame. It is about three blocks from our hotel, The Loden. We walked around a bit, and went to Robson Street. Robson Street is a big shopping and eating place, and has a lot of things to do. We went to Roots, a big clothes shop in Canada. I found a really nice USA hat that I liked, and then we left (I eventually got the hat later in the day, after lunch). Later, we went to Hudson Bay Co. and went to the Olympics Superstore, which is a big place in a mall that has all Olympics stuff. In the Superstore, there was a huge map of the world, where you could put a pin on it and get a Coke pin. Pins a big thing in the Olympics. Many people have and trade pins. Robby would tell you the same thing.

What a full day you've had! Thanks for all the details - and I love your hat! Have you seen any of the Olympic stars? Are you allowed to see inside the Olympic Village? Most importantly, how's the food? Enjoy every minute and keep the reports coming.
Love you! Gram
