RBC VIP Olympic Invite

What a day! What a day!

I was at Level 36, complimentary of the RBC VIP Olympic invite. This executive floor has been converted into a hospitality suite, complete with full kitchen service, bar and three breakout rooms. The decor rivals that of trendy Yaletown bars; electric blue, modern white, clean lines of glass tables complemented the spectacular view.



The morning tour of the Vancouver Art Museum which was featuring the 18 unpublished transcript of Leonardo Da Vinci, was quite the way to start off an eventful morning. Lunch was back at Level 36 where the room exploded with cheers as Jasey Jay pulled a miraculous come-from-behind victory in Slalom claiming Canada's 12th gold medal and second of the day. This came just 5 minutes after Canada won the Men's Team Pursuit Speed Skating Gold and before the room calmed down from the excitement.

Just when you thought the day would not get any better, we were treated to one of the best performance on ice ever by the best skaters around the world at the Pacific Coliseum. This is the day I made up my mind to teach my future daughter the art of dancing on ice, figure skating. Particularly impressive is Canada's Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir and their playful routine, as well as the graceful Evan Lysacek from USA.




Its been a long day and I still have a Mercedes Benz party at Canvas Lounge tonight.

What a day!
