Olympic Torch

After attending a lecture on "Ukrainian Neo-Paganism" I went to the Butterdome on 87th Avenue and waited together with other curious onlookers for the Olympic torch to be carried through the streets of Edmonton ...

Bands played music on a stage, hockey players were playing in the street and the Canadian flag was dangling down from a huge crane. And just when I thought of leaving the runner with the torch appeared ... What a great moment!
Was it cold? Obviously not. I saw a guy in shorts and a girl wearing a skirt and woolen stockings up to her knees - but no tights! When I came home I checked the temperature for the day on the Internet: -9. Canadians seem to be tough!
