Game Day Sochi

Game Day Sochi

Gold medal day: I am not often speechless, but today, the day after the big day I am - both figuratively and literally. I guess I will begin the morning of that day. We were suffering from a case of anxious anticipation. Some had nerves, other were just excited. It felt like torture that the… Continue Reading

Day 13 Sochi

Day 13: It is hard to imagine that the days here are almost done. Today it was pouring rain and we didn’t have any events, so I have to say this blog may be a little dull as I kind of holed-up in my hotel. Marilyn got a massage this morning and when she was… Continue Reading

Day 10 Sochi

Day 10 Sochi

Day 10: Today is our first day up to the mountain cluster (well, on purpose anyway.) We have heard that the trek is a long one, so we head out midday for our night event of ski jumping, supposing that we would do some sight seeing.   Up the mountain there are even fewer people… Continue Reading

Day 9 Sochi

Day 9: We woke up this morning to discover our “I am Canadian” beach pic had been tweeted by Hayley and retweeted by everyone from major news networks to the Canadian Olympic Team. Have to say if I was going to choose a pic of me to go viral, I may not have selected a… Continue Reading

Day 8: Today was a family day for Hayley, approved by her coaches, so we meet her at the hotel and head out. With some great guides, thanks to Hayley, we start at San Remo Restaurant, possibly one of the most beautiful restaurants I have ever been to. The floor was sand and we looked… Continue Reading

Day 7 Sochi

Day 7 Sochi

Day 7: I cannot believe we have been here only a week! It honestly feels like we have been here for weeks, mostly because I have been so overwhelmed and pleasantly surprised with how well everything is going. Looking back on the week, I relive the sense of anxiety and how quickly it was swept… Continue Reading
