Catching All the Action

Two days ago, I got to watch my first Olympic event: men's luge. Today, I watched my first Olympic event finals: men's alpine skiing - downhill. American Bode Miller earned the bronze medal in the event after not finishing in the top ten all year. Yesterday, Johnny Spillane became the first American to win a medal in Nordic combined skiing. These two were the first Americans to win medals from the Whistler venues, which makes for a busy night for me and my co-workers.

Since the opening ceremonies, I've been able to watch parts of three live concerts: Matisyahu, Estelle and Valerie Sajdik. I'm still hoping to see one of the nightly DJ shows at the end of the Whistler ski slope.
