Whistler's unique environment and status as Canada's most celebrated mountain resort made for an ideal backdrop to the Winter Games' alpine events. In 2010 were the twenty-first Winter Olympic Games were hold in Vancouver, Canada. Lots of people love sports, especially the Olympic Games. Last year the beautiful Vancouver was the host city. Vancouver and that area is wonderful and perfect for the tournament. Approximately 250 athletes’ registered for around 80 medals. The Canadian people were friendly and British Columbia offered many kinds of programs for visitors. The Opening Ceremony was about the Indian aboriginal story. The audience had to wear white clothes because they were involved into the show. The Indian story showed spiritual feeling. The performers were all volunteers. My favorite sports are the figure skating and ski jumping. Figure skating is beautiful and seems easy, but I am afraid it is hard. I don`t know; I never tried it. Ski jumping is interesting and sometimes awesome for me. The distance is too long that they spend in the air. Snowboard race is extreme for me because they are too close each other. That was exciting and spectacular. Here are some interesting things about the Olympic and Paralympics Games: With the 2010 Olympic and Paralympics Winter Games a resounding success, Whistler Blackcomb invites the world to experience the legacies and magic of the Games. The Official Alpine Skiing Venue, which includes the Dave Murray Downhill and the Women's Course on Whistler Mountain which the Olympians and Paralympians competed on, are open to the public for skiing and snowboarding. Snowmaking capabilities at Whistler Blackcomb have more than doubled due to a four-year partnership and a $17.5 million investment by VANOC. Guests will enjoy improved early-season snow coverage as well as longer lasting ski outs as the season winds down. The Sea to Sky Highway, greatly improved during the lead up to the Games, is now a faster, safer and more scenic route from Vancouver to Whistler.
In summary I enjoyed to watch the games and cheered for the Hungarian and the U.S.A. teams too. I will be there as soon J.
