O Canada! God keep our land, glorious and free! Wow! What a feeling! I hope this is a feeling that I will remember for the rest of my life! The patriotism I felt. Just being 'Canadian' meant more today than at any other time! Emotional? Yes, along with the rest of Canada! Our grandson, Josh, has a favourite player before this all began - Sidney Crosby. He was so excited that he was in the game and that something great was going to happen. I don't think he ever questioned whether or not we would win the GOLD. Not with Crosby on the team! But now, with GOLD in hand, he is even more excited and thrilled to be Canadian as well. How much more exciting can this get for us?
I watched other Olympics but this one has been the most exciting. Perhaps because it was here on Canadian soil? Maybe it was because I was actually 'down in the midst of the people' in Vancouver literally 'feeling' the electricity in the air. The excitment was touchable. I can't say it enough - Vancouver did a super job!
Let's celebrate this win together - as a Country - as a people, as Canadians! Go Canada Go!
