The Olympic torch went past the school at the end of our street this afternoon and the WHOLE neighbourhood came out to watch it!! My friend M wanted to see it too so she came for lunch and went down with us. It was quite the sight but the girl ran fast and it was in sight and gone in the blink of an eye...good thing she was preceeded by several trucks from the sponsers and lots and lots of police and RCMP in cars, vans and motorbikes. The school kids were all dressed in red and white, had made hats and many had their faces painted. The atmosphere was very electric to say the least! There was even a bunch of elementary kids standing in a group and singing "O Canada" while we were waiting for the torch!
