Huy and I attended the International Olympic Day celebration today at The Bay St. Vital. It was an awesome turnout and those mascots were hilarious!
We scored a free Olympic hat, Olympic themed Excel gum, and some great BBQ’d food. 2010 Olympic hopefuls Brittany Schussler and Mike Ireland were both there to play a pick-up game of street hockey with other Winnipegers.
Here are some photos from our photographer Huy. You may notice the photos get darker and darker as we move forward into the day. Unfortunately the festives would be cut short due to a quick lunch time rain shower.
