Where to Buy Olympic Red Mittens?

IMG 0980 300x225 Where to Buy Olympic Red Mittens?

I’m currently in Vancouver, Canada. Home of the 2010 Winter Olympics. It turns out that the hotel I’m staying at is quite far from the city, making a trip to downtown unlikely. Nonetheless, I was able to find an adventure today of Olympic proportions…

When mom heard I was off to Vancouver, she made one request; “buy me a pair of Olympic Red Mittens”.

Celebrating the Saints in New Orleans

It just so happened that my trip to New Orleans was planned a few weeks before the Saints were headed to the Superbowl. What a wonderful moment of serendipity; Being in the same city as a Superbowl Home Team on the night of the game! And even better, they won.

This was the first time that the Saints were in (arguably), the biggest event in American Culture. And while it uncertain if they would remain victorious, the mere fact that they were playing was enough. It seemed as if the party started as soon as you woke up. All around the city people were chanting “Whodat” – the Saints cheer.

New Orleans Celebrates the Saints

Today’s my last day in New Orleans. Last night was like nothing I’ve ever seen before. I’ll give you the full report in the coming days when I arrive home. But for now, enjoy this video I captured of the parties in New Orleans and Bourbon Street after the Saints won the Superbowl.
