Well the dust has settled and our city must move on, but not before we bask in the glory of what we shared with the world.  To recap; post Olympic and Paralympic games, the weather was amazing, the Canadian athletes were more amazing and the people of our city were even more amazing!  Going downtown during the games was great instead of the usual tension filled streets with drunks roaming around our streets were filled with revellers singing a common theme; GO CANADA GO!  For the first time in my life the streets were filled with the sounds of our national anthem, the entire mood of the city was electrifying.  We billed the restaurant out as the "Canadian Embassy" and decked it out with Canadian flags, on the inside we had all 12 of the men's olympic hockey country's flags hanging and we symbolically closed them as they were eliminated.
