Olympic Flame is in town today-Oct 30, 2009

By c9talk

Got home from other route.  At around 4:45pm, G and I walked to Uvic to join the crowd.  It was starting to rain a little bit at that time but still not stopping the people to come to join the event.   Around 5:20 or so, the Olympic Torch Bearer finally run in front of us.  People were clapping their hands.  I had never seen the Olympic Torch so close to me before.  Actually, it is not that close, it is about 2 cars distance.  I took some pictures.   We left as soon as we did not see the Bearer and walked home.   15 minutes after we arrived home, it started to rain heavely.  I hope the Bearer had escaped the rain and was in the covered hall already at that time.

106 days to go to the opening of the Vancouver Winter Olympic Games 2010!
