After visiting the Bay and making a couple of small purchase for myself (they were out of the Team Canada hoodies I really wanted and were sure would be left over after the Games and on sale - what did I know?!), we walked to the Library to see how long the line was to view and touch the medals from the Royal Canadian Mint . . . answer - VERY long! Probably about 2 1/2 hours, long for adults and much too long for little girls!
We then walked towards Robson Square - along the way we found a Trevor Linden/Canuck eagle on the street - Holly has photos with quite a number of the eagles around town!
Cassie got a Miga stuffie from London Drugs, so the girls are showing off their matching Migas.
Alas, no shows at Robson Square, so after a brief walk around there, I thought about checking out the BC Pavilion in the Vancouver Art Gallery. During the Games, my sister had tried to visit, but the line up was over an hour long. We went in, and saw a few people in a line. When I asked a hostess, she confirmed it was indeed the line to enter and we got in in under 3 minutes! Plus, because of the Olympics, the BC Government was allowing free entry - BONUS!
The girls had fun checking out the transportation display . . .
And the interactive gallery - there were four screens in this room with a picture of trees in the four different seasons - when you touched the screen things would appear and move and change . . . hard to describe, but very cool.
On the way back to the car, the two girls found a "stage" and did a little dance for us.
And also discovered a very cool sculpture!
