5:38 pm
I’m going to see women’s hockey. All the skill, half the fighting!

The Bell house and Quebec Houses look very interesting from a designer/ architectural view. The Holland house at the Ozone looks to be very fun. I hope to visit those for sure. I also hope to hit up the Sochi House to see a preview of the next winter olympics!
As for events, hockey, speed skating and snowboarding are favorite olympic events for me. I hope to catch one of those events!
5:45 pm
Being an east-coaster all my life until I moved to BC 7 years ago, I am very excited to see Atlantic House. SO many performances, cooking exhibits and hospitality. It will really feel like a “piece of home” at the Olympics. That being said, my whole family can’t wait to try out the “electricity producing sustainable dance floor” and “graffiti expression wall”. I think a little competition will set in for sure!
5:45 pm
Cool…can’t wait to check it out!
5:45 pm
Looking forward to hanging out at the Atlantic Canada and House of Switzerland pavilions. And then, of course, there’s the Holland Heineken House in Richmond…

5:50 pm
I wanna see that sustainable dancefloor! maybe we could redo Granville street again and harness some of that bridge and tunnel energy to light the neon. The faster they dance, the brighter it gets! Can I patent this idea?
5:50 pm
With so much to see and do around the city, it will be hard to decide what to see first. Everything sounds so interesting. I am hoping to see as many outdoor events as I can and experience some of that Olympic spirit! Vancouver will be the best host city around.
5:51 pm
Only a week to go til we see the best athletes compete in the best place on earth!
5:59 pm
i have started to compile a list of things to do for the Olympics starting from all the International Cultural Houses (Especially Russia house, Holland House, Korea House and House of Switzerland), all of the Provincial Cultural houses, to the Robson Street Zip Line, Richmond O-Zone.

I’m looking forward to seeing many events, esp. Figure Skating!!

I am most interested in going downtown and just seeing hoe different everything is going to be. I think it will be truly marvellous!
6:57 pm
Figure Skating!! No doubt.
Have been skating in Trout Lake and Killarney rinks since 1994, I am probably one of the *very few* males who wears figure skates. (OK … please don’t laugh …)
It is the combination of art and power. Could not wait to see it … in the beloved PNE.
6:59 pm
What an awesome morning in Sechelt. The torch run is a fabulous event, with so many parts that spotlight not only the games and the athletes, but also history and local community. So proud of Sara Doherty for getting to bring the torch into Sechelt!! We’d love to go to figure skating and bring all our signs, shirts (5 different hats in our 4-person family), and cheering voices.

Having been born and raised in Vancouver, I am very excited about the Olympics. I vaguely recall Expo 1986. To my utter dismay, I couldn’t get any Olympic tickets during Phases 1-3 of the VANOC ticket purchase sessions. So, I’m settling for watching the Games on tv, attending LiveCity Robson and Yaletown, visiting the different countries’ Houses and going to a Victory Ceremony.
8:20 pm
2 words – Heineken House
2 more words – Doubles Luge
8:31 pm
Watching the city transform these past few months has been really exciting! Working in Yaletown and catching glimpses of all the construction around the downtown area has certainly peaked our interest. I think we have to see the Canada pavilion! With so much to see and do around the city, it’s going to be tough to decide which to visit first! Everything sounds so interesting. All of the cultural olympiad events are amazing – the best of what Vancouver has to offer! It’s easy to catch the Olympic spirit! Go Canada Go!

11:54 pm
I’ve been watching figure skating at the Olympics as long as I can remember… and that’s a long time! One of my earliest Olympic memories was Karen Magnussen on the ice. I am taking my children to figure skating *practice* since that is really all we can afford: it is an opportunity to see Olympic calibre skaters, even if it is not in competition.
I am looking forward all of the pavilions, but particularly the French Quarter at Granville Island because I love to eat!
It would be wonderful to win tickets to see a real figure skating competition in person.
12:13 am
I’m looking forward to the opening ceremonies the most – I think that that will be the moment when all of Vancouver is on board with the games.
12:21 am

Since I didn’t even try to get tickets to any of the events, I am going to check out the free events and just be around the downtown area during the Olympics! I’m going to the rehearsal opening ceremony though at BC Place, so that’d be interesting since I’ve never seen a live event there.

I have enjoyed riding my bike around the seawall and watching all the Olympic venues and decorations appear. Today, I noticed all the different nation flags on the windows in the Olympic village.
I don’t have tickets for any Olympic events and I’m working throughout the games (no time off allowed where I work).
I would really like to win these figure skating tickets for my senior citizen parents. My parents actually met ice skating in Vancouver! My Dad and his sister were pairs ice skaters. My Dad’s sister was an ice skating judge up until she passed away. My Dad’s best friend (I call him Uncle) was an ice skating clown. One of my sisters was also a member of Stars on Ice and travelled Europe when she was younger.
I didn’t inherit the ice skating gene. ;-)
7:44 pm
My husband & I are so looking forward to all of the Olympic events. Because we don’t have tickets to any event we will certainly enjoy them from our comfortable seats in front of our tv.
9:58 pm

I am totally excited to see Men’s long program on 18th.
It is the deepest field now, you will never know who will win!!
But I am looting for Daisuke Takahashi, he is the most talented artist on ice. I love him.
2:46 pm
Watching canada win gold medal for hockey at GM Place!!! Go Canada!
6:48 pm
I am super excited for the Olympics to start! I went for a walk around the downtown core yesterday to take in the feeling and the spirit. Can’t wait for more people to arrive and thrive off the energy and excitement at all the venues! To me the Olympics is a celebration of the power of sport. I think it is beautiful and moving to share in the dreams, goals and personal victories of amateur athletes. We all have our own “Olympic” sized challenges and successes and I am proud to be able to cheer on others as they go for their “gold.” I didn’t get any Olympic event tickets (but would LOVE to go!), but am looking forward to supporting the Paralympics and attending the sledge hockey! Go athletes go!
9:35 pm
I am really looking forward to watching the speed skating and visiting the Richmond O-Zone.
9:42 pm
Looking forwards to seeing figure skating, hockey, and speed skating on TV. Also want to visit each of the provinces’ houses! And Ukraine house (mmm perogies!)
10:18 pm
We are looking forward to going to several hockey games, curling, freestyle skiing and also visiting the many Houses in downtown vancouver and the Robson square ice rink. The zipline downtown will be a great draw as well.
11:12 pm
I can’t wait to see “The Houses”.
But the Figure Skating is my “passion”. I’d “like ” to see “every” Figure Skating event……any extra tickets out there?????
Thankyou….Donna

While we don’t have any tickets, we will be watching many events on tv… moguls, and figure skating. I would love to take my 7 year old figure skater to see the competition.
1:39 pm
I would luv to see any event, as this would be my husband and l last chance to ever see any.
3:59 pm
We did not manage to get any event tickets, but there are so many other things to do in the city right now. Have you seen Granville street?!
4:27 pm
I walked by Jamie Sale and David Pellitier two days ago, and today I was joined on the skytrain by two Russian figure skaters!!! I love the vibe in the city and plan to visit as many of the International Cultural Houses as possible as well take in the many free events downtown. I will also be going to the figure skating venue on the day and seeing if any tickets do become available. One way or another I hope to be in that audience :)
12:20 am
I took figure skating lessons to become a better hockey player
1:09 am
I can’t wait to do the ZIPLINE!!! :D The whole vibe and atmosphere created by the Olympics is just tooooo exciting to be expressed in words!!!! Hockey Gold. who doesn’t want to watch that? But too bad most of us will have to just enjoy them on TV!
