The Olympic Issue and Valentine's love pack.

The Olympics are in town!!! here at MACnunu headquarters, we're really excited as neither of us have experienced such a large international event in our hometown before. Yeah, so the people of BC will probably be paying for it for the next 30 years, but since it's already here let's support the athletes, and enjoy it!
I joined the crowd in welcoming the torch to the city:

The Olympic Cauldron:

Can't see much? eh...we couldn't either...it's apparently one of the controversies surrounding the Olympics; people have been complaining that there isn't a decent place to take a photo of the cauldron. You can't see it in this photo, but there's a iron fence around the cauldron and people are saying that it gives the cauldron an "imprison" look.

The queue to get into the Sochi House:

Sochi, Russia is where the next winter Olympics is scheduled to take place. We literally lined up for over 1hour to get inside so we could...watch a Russian vampire movie...
T.T
Skip unless you have the patience of a saint, and time to burn. There's really nothing inside, other than a big screen TV, a bar, and Ovechkin's hockey jersey. Oh, and a couple of Russian girls. We did manage to take this rather spectacular photo though.

People built these little Olympic figurines alone the beach, how in the world did they get them to stay up??!! And what exactly is the etiquette for jacking stones from your neighbour's figurine??...

People everywhere:

We went into Chinatown to have Pho for lunch. It was meh =.="

We discovered that there was an open air food market just a couple of blocks away AFTER this... It's ok, we went back at night xD

Standing behind the Olympics news broadcasting booth, waiting for a chance to make an arse of myself:

Of course I can't give up the opportunity to throw a fob sign:

There was this crazy dude there juggling on a unicycle with just his doondies on:

Please remember this is on a winter's day...

Hand painted paper lamps:

Taken from Granville Island:

Celebrating in the streets after Canada's 8-0 win over Norway:

Canadians are serious about their hockey:

Here I am hooking up to the Tree of Voices...oops wrong reality xD it's actually the Bell Ice Cube:

The Pooker also got the opportunity to go watch Curling live. It's a sport which he now pretends to understand after watching for 3 hours.

I was more interested in THIS curling game!

$5 lamb curry. Told you we went back to the food market. Was pretty good actually...

Curry fishballs:

Fish Siu Mai: - haha, these were being sold by this white guy who was hawking it out for the shop's Chinese owners xD

And to round off my night, I come home to this:

Miss. Pink's Valentine's day love pack. I gobbled up the cookies already, omg they are sooooo goooooood! Thank you very much for thinking of me! I'm quite a fan girl of Miss. Pink, so I'm never gonna wash my hands again.
Bitch didn't leave a return address, now I'm gonna take it as a personal challenge to find out her address.
What a pic heavy post!! Expect another Olympic related post some time this week!
