Wow... Huge win for the US. Over 1/2 of Canada was estimated to watch this game. This loss was devistating for them. The Canadians are not happy people right now... The main thing the Candians are talking about on the news is how the Americans are cleaning house on the medals.
We also were able to see Ohno win his bronze medal. The feeling in the rink was incredible. I cannot explain how fast the skaters are in person. Ohno is so extremely fun to watch. He knows just when turn on the jets and when to skate effeciently enough to conserve energy.
Finally, we were able to catch some bobsled action up in Whistler. Once again TV does not do the winter games justice. These guys were clocking up to 100 mph in these sleds. If you were to blink you would miss them. The guy in the second test run fliped on his side right in front of us. We did not think he was going to walk away from this. There were paramedics running from all angles to come to his rescue. I thought it was going to be another incident like last week but thank God he was okay.
We have not had any time to do much blogging because of how busy things have been but keep posted tonight and tomorrow because we have some great pictures and video.
