I am super excited because this year is the Winter Olympics! The last time there was the Winter Olympics was in Vancouver. It was super fun because we just needed to take a 10 minute car ride to the game.
My favourite sport in the Winter Olympics is Figure Skating. I like it because it is basically gymnastics and dance on ice. My favourite Figure Skating pair is Tessa and Scott because they show so much determination to win the gold! During the 2010 Olympics Tessa had a shin and calf problem and she still dealt with it and won a gold medal with Scott.
For this years Olympics, they are adding some new sports like extreme snow boarding, extreme skiing and a few more that I can’t remember. I can’t wait to see the new sports!

With the upcoming Olympics I have been reflecting back on our experiences at the 2010 Games in Vancouver. What a journey that was and to be able to share it with you and your family was absolutely fabulous. Truly an experience of a lifetime, never to be duplicated. I loved going to the figure skating gala and the women’s hockey game with you. But the surprise ticket to the opening ceremonies was a dream come true. Shall we book a flight to Sochi? Ha ha. Maybe Rio in 2016??
I agree, we should totally go to Rio!
I especially like the Giant Slalom.
My dad just told me what that means! Cool!
I lived in Vancouver during the 2010 Olympics too… so many nice memories! Enjoy the games!
I agree. My favourite sport to watch is Figure Skating!
