I saw the torch in Burnaby by Burnaby North it was awesome and just to my right the one carrier passed it to another so I was able to see it passed on. I loved it and tomorrow it goes by my work in Vancouver so I can watch it again.
The torch costs $350 if the carrier wants to keep it. I wish there was a list telling who is carrying and when.

Either way it was unreal so exciting and I found out a torch is coming to my work and if you want you can have a picture with it. Not sure who ran with it but it doesn't matter to me.

The flags are so cheaply made, compared to the Canucks one I have. The Pepsi one is sturdier than the Coke one.

Heading to downtown in a bit, going to check out what's going on but imagine how nuts it would have been if this was the summer games. Crazy weather, crazy outdoor parties for 2 weeks, packed beaches and a city full of half naked foreign women.
