My day started quietly with a sprinkly walk to the Oval. I passed by The Foggy Dew, a quaint little Irish pub with great food and walked passed the Dr. Seuss tree.
Races started at noon and the Olympia "Don't Call Me A Zamboni" machine made the track nice and smooth for the races. We lost. So off to short track.
Short track went much better with Apolo Anton Ohno winning a silver medal and J.R. Celski winning a bronze. Very cool! About 10:30 I jumped on the shuttle to the Main Press Center so I could jump on a train back to my hotel.
Even at 11:00, the train was STILL crowded. First official day over. Tomorrow I start over. Sigh. Is anyone even reading these posts?

That is a GREAT tree! You should yell "I am the Lorax, and I speak for the trees" everytime you walk past it.
Yes! I am reading your posts! Don't stop, please don't stop! I watched part of the opening ceremonies and hoped you were there. I watched the short-track competition and knew you were there. So exciting!
You know I'm reading them---anything to feel closer to being there with you. You're doing a great job with these posts and with all your responsibilities up there. You rock!! And I love you.
