Today I am inviting a number of folks to view and follow this blog as we embark on our little adventure. We will be leaving for Vancouver on Thursday morning and this week is dedicated to getting ready. I have finished my recent contract and have the three days ahead to do what has to be done. Freddi, unfortunately, is busy right up until end of day on Wednesday. However, she is organized as she is packed and can pull out of town with a few minutes notice.
Our schedule is pretty straight forward.
Thursday - Jan 28 - Ottawa Vancouver where Bree's Dad (Larry) will be picking us up and driving us to Pemberton after I pick up my credentials and uniform in Vancouver for the Olympic Volunteer activities. We will enjoy a happy reunion with our kids and have a dinner with Larry and the gang.
Starting Jan 29th through to Feb 12 we have a few appointments for training and some free time to enjoy the mountains and do some skiing. Freddi starts work on Feb 4th as she is in Accreditation and there is a fair amount of preparation to be ready for the onslaught starting Feb 12th.
Feb 12 through 28 are the days of the Olympics 2010 and we both have 13 shifts during the 17 days. There will be much excitement during that time and we will learn about the two different venues we are working in.
Mar 3 is the day we journey back home after a nice 5 week visit to the west, participation in a great event and having spent 5 weeks with our kids in their home. I expect by then that they will be happy to see our back end heading east.....
I hope you join me on this trip and enjoy some of the things we are going to experience. Feel free to sign up for updates or ignore this invitation.
