Athletes are finally coming in. There were a few busloads last night. Stuck in the workforce entry like I am, I didn't get to see anything exciting. However, I do get to see people in their uniforms wandering about.
Country uniforms seen so far: Russia, Polska, Italia, Czech.
Flags hanging from the balconies: Great Brittan, Germany, and many that I don't know. Also, the Aussies have a HUGE banner with a boxing Kangaroo on it that's causing quite a controversy. Apparently the athletes are allowed to hang their country's flags from their rooms. However, the roo isn't on their flag and some folks are upset. Leave it to the Aussies to stir up a fuss. I knew I loved them.
Police Departments: Too many...including, Montreal, Calgary, Halifax, Ontario, and many other towns that I don't know. There are three cruise ships filled with law enforcement here. In the village, as the saying goes, you can't swing a cat without hitting one.
We have a guest - Flat Jennifer (Flat Stanley's sister) is visiting from our friends in Los Angeles. Look for pictures of Flat Jennifer having fun at the Olympics. Tonight I may run her through the X-ray machine......
