Monday: Today I am recovering from "Hockey Fever," like most Canadians. Today I feel wonderful. It has been a day to rest, think, and wonder. Nearly everybody is a bit surprised at the success of the past two long weeks, as I am. After all the competitors have done their best, and now, on their way home, whether they lost or won, they have done it all, with skill and love of sports. Congratulations!
The biggest surprise to me is the very beauty of the Medals themselves, so very different in design, size, and shape. The Native couple of people who did them and in patterns, need a medal themselves. I really hope they both get a lot of recognition.
