C is for Charismatic Canadian City

Instead of writing a whole bunch about my crazy Canuck city, which is the host for the upcoming Winter Olympics (in 10 days), I thought I'd just give you a peek at how beautiful it is. So sit back, relax for about 6:50 minutes while I take you away to Lotus Land. If you're coming for the Olympics, you're going to get really excited and if not, well, sorry...but be sure to watch on TV. In Canada CTV is covering it and in the USA, NBC has the rights. Not sure about other countries, so check your local listings.

    I have an old postcard of Vancouver (1908 or so). It looks so small and undeveloped then...still the same beautiful setting though.

    Great video - Vancouver has really grown since I was there last. Amazing. Spokane recently held figure skating competition where the two top scorers will be entered in the Olympics. Exciting!

    An exciting time for Vancouver, and a lovely city. Would you like us to ship you some snow from the Interior?

    Well, I saw a big white square with a cross in the top left corner, so I will have to take your word for it. (for some reason I am unable to watch any videos)

    A wonderful compilation.
    I have many similar images in my own collection. I will be avoiding Vancouver for most of February.
