As you can probably hypothesize, this was the Olympic Torch Relay! Fuuuunnnnnnn!!!!!!! This actually took place last Thursday at around 4pm after school, but I have had an extremely busy day, so here the pics are! OMGosh! I was sososososososo excited. And I still am! I can't believe that I actually got to see STEVE NASH in person. I didn't actually go up to him and say hi because there were soooo many people trying to get to him. But if I had the chance to, I totally would have! And asked for his autograph too. My dad is a HUGE basketball fan, so he would have been really amazed. I don't know the name of the lady who passed the flame to Steve Nash, but I did get a chance to meet her great aunt, I believe. I went with my friends, and the lady beside us was her great aunt. I'm still not 100% sure if she was her great aunt, but she did seem very excited, so were we.
It was so amazing! I actually got to see the flame being transfered from one torch to the other, as you can see from the pics. It was totally amazing! Like super duper amazing! And these people passed out flags and I also got a RBC tamboreen! (Sorry if thats spelled wrong, but you get the pic.) And I still have it! It's sooo awesome!
And the funny thing was, every time a car passed by, we would all cheer. And especially if the car honked, then we would all go nuts over it! I love us! We are so awsesomely supportive. (Besides the protestors) But all the people at Heather and 49th were supportive. It was such an amazing thing. We all came together to cheer our Canadians on! And the time was perfect too- right after school. Weather could have been sunnier, but hey, it didn't rain that much. It was just spitting. So that was cool.
GO CANADA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
