USA v Russia Part 1
Another beautiful Vancouver morning. A light frost over night but we are expecting temperatures to be in the low 60's by afternoon. Awesome! Melissa loves the Olympic characters and this morning at the curling venue they featured Quatchi and Miga. Unfortunately they were closing the line for us to get our pictures taken with them. Oh well, I am sure we will see them again.
We found team USA had a late practice that night to work through some issues for today's game. I told you a little soul searching was in order.
Our fans decided to bring out their best as well. In the picture above is Doug and Dawn from Omaha, Nebraska, friends of Debbie. We sat on the opposite side of the arena as them behind some cousins of Natalie's. They were just up for the day from Seattle and were ready to do some cheering. That kind of put me in the mood as well. It was a nice day for it as well because Canada wasn't playing. I started several USA cheers that were followed by all the USA fans. A couple of times the team had to look up at us and laugh. It was shaping up to be a great day.
Team USA put on great showing today and made several nice shots. BTW great sweeping was done by Natalie and Nicole today.
