02.27.2010 - Day 18 - Out with USA Hockey

Breakfast at the hotel and off to the rink early to take photos on the ice, at Canada place, with the group of officials. Thanks to Brian Murphy for making sure the girls were included in this.

When we got back, the female officials gathered in the meeting room with our 1) Cameras 2) Computers and 3) Cords to exchange photos. I don't know how we ever functioned before digital? It was funny because this is where my IT side came out and I was helping a few officials with the uploading of the photos.
Bob and Jackie from Canada (IIHF supervisors)
I met Annika and Anna in the lobby around 13.00 and we went to Earl's for lunch; good stuff. We made a final trip to the official Olympic store; still no mittens people! Then I broke off and hit the store, by the crepe place on Robson with the deals and back to the hotel to do a base packing.
I met all the crew from USA Hockey in the lobby of the hotel at 17.00 and we walked to the Keg for dinner on USA Hockey; Thanks Mr. Matt! Harry Thompson from USA Hockey joined us for dinner and we watched the Bronze medal game in the background.
We walked back to the hotel on the way we met some of the other guys for a beverage and hung out in the hotel restaurant for a bit. It was a later night:)
