The Last Olympic Day

The MOMMIETRON and I decided to go out for one last trek of the Olympic venues this morning. They had already shut-down the line-up at the Royal Canadian Mint Pavilion by the time we arrived this morning, so we walked over to the Vancouver Art Gallery to take some photos instead. I wanted to show her the mini houses at the VAG's Offsite Exhibit. It's right at the foot of the Shangri-La Hotel. We had some lunch at Urban Fare, which totally hit the spot! After our meal, we walked over to Coal Harbour. You can see the Olympic Cauldron's flame from here! Just a short wait in line this afternoon. Posing with the Olympic Cauldron... Gratitude towards the Volunteer Blue Jackets for taking our photos!!! Ironic, you could barely see the flame in this shot. The flame gets extinguished tonight. :( We walked along the water after. The Olympic Rings are just over the MOMMIETRON's shoulder! Now, with the seaplanes... Walking the seawall... The MOMMIETRON and the myriad of boats... Look, she's wearing the Vancouver colours! On the way back, we bumped into Flora and Adiam at Robson Square! They were in line for the last day of zip-lining. They must have waited over 5 hours to go down! The girls did it though. Good for them, that's the Olympic spirit!!!
