What a day for Canada!
3 Gold medals and a Bronze to take Canada to a whopping total of 13 Gold , 7 Silver and 5 Bronze. Sounds like a lot of records were broken (Edit: or equaled) today, with ‘most Gold by Canada in a single day’ and ‘most Gold by a host nation’ amongst them 
With any luck, we will soon be saying Canada holds the record for the ‘most Gold by any country EVER‘ – to do so, we just need one more for a total of 14.
So congratulations to Denny Morrison, Lucas Makowsky and Mathieu Giroux in the long-track speed skating. Jasey-Jay Anderson in the Snowboard Parallel Slalom, and the curling team – John Morris, Marc Kennedy, Benjamin Hebert and Adam Enright skipped by Kevin Martin. I was lucky enough to be at the Sliding Center to help cheer on Lydon Rush and the boys ( Chris Bihan, David Bissett and Lascelles Brown ) capture the Bronze in the 4 man bobsleigh.
Whew, what a day indeed Do I sound greedy by saying I wish Pierre Lueders had have found a way to join Lyndon on the Bobsleigh podium?
One thing I can say is, it has been a LOT of fun being here. I have ended up just leaving the camera at home, to just go ‘be there’. What a great atmosphere! With friendly international competition during the day and awesome entertainment at night.
hey seems like a great time had by all during the games and i wish i was there to take it all in! now how about that snow?! i havent seen a snow condition report for ages! any chance of one of your no nonsense reports that im sure alot of users of this site really appreciate! thanks again!
Snow reports will be back soon – once I finish full-time work and get back to doing ‘part-time hours’
Snow report! please… looking forward to know how the skiing conditions are… Thanks!
Looks like Canada ended up owning the podium after all.
Won the most events – by far!
Most golds ever by a host country way to go! Team Canada winning gold yesterday was amazing!
Now back to reality…
Try MOST Golds by ANY country at ANY games
It just so happens that host nations are the record holders. Perhaps due to the ‘restricting access to other countries athletes’ saga?
Or more likely an exceptional amount of government or corporate funding. What ever it was, it was awesome being here. I’m skiing tomorrow so I’ll try to update all you snow junkies.
