Women's Hockey Game!

Another great day on Sochi! At this point I can't imagine at there will be any day that isn't great!

We were all very tired and slept in today because we didn't have a curling game until 2pm. It felt wonderful.  After our curling game, we went directly to the women's hockey game versus Canada. We had a bit of an issue with tickets, but eventually it all turned out! We got two tickets from two ladies just outside the ice arena and some tickets from the P&G folks. Two of the tickets were right behind the USA bench! My husband and Carter were in another section. They ended up meeting and taking a picture with Ryan Miller, the men's hockey goalie! Even though the women lost, it was so fun to watch! And just amazing to see Brianna Decker play, she was a student of mine!

After the game we went to the P&G House and were able to sit down and chat with Brianna and her family a bit. And of course, the rest of the team was there too! I really find it fun to see all of these athletes. Carter took some pictures with his camera and I took some with mine, but forgot to pull out the IPad much, so will have to share some later.

Travis Ganong's family wanted a picture
With Carter. Travis is a downhill skier.

Tomorrow's plan is to go to the Olympic Village! The athletes have to request passes to get their family in and the passes are very limited. We got bumped out each time we requested in Vancouver, so we are hoping this time we really get in. By chance, Debbie and Brianna ended up on the same floor! So we may just run into Brianna during our visit.

I also figured out where the Today Show films, so we may try to take a peak tomorrow and see if we can wave to everyone at home. Also, below are some videos I took to show you the cultural experiences I mentioned up in an earlier post. There are musicians and dancers all over the place and they are so very talented! Video seemed easy to post from my IPad, so I will try to take more. Enjoy!
