Am watching a tv show now, that is abit propagandistic about the Olympic torch relay across Canada for the 2010 Winter Olympics. It's great to see some other communities across our country, preparing for celebrations and practicing for their part in the Olympic torch relay.
It's day 3 now in the relay countdown. Strange to some locals (in Vancouver) 'cause the construction of the Olympic athlete's village is still not done.
Am trying to combat cynicism where here in Vancouver, it's concern about impeding security, traffic jams, noise, crowds, inflationary hotel prices, budget overruns, etc. instead of athletic achievements to witness.
I need to kick apart cynicism and..be inspired by observing and being part of little Maidei's journey worldwide by bike, etc.
