We had a VERY rainy Saturday! We kept hoping that it would stop but it never did. Unlike last years rainy Saturday, it wasn't torrential and it wasn't as cold. AND we were going to end up INSIDE at the Rogers centre where we new it was dry and warm!
Arriving at Camp was very cool - as we entered they announced our names and team and we were ON THE JUMBOTRON!!!! woohoo!!!! We found our tent, changed our shoes and went thru Blue Jays dugout into the Argos dressing room to have a 15min Massage ... It was truely a goose-bumpy afternoon!!
We had a couple of groovy blue tents to change in and use as a meeting place ... after that we found a comfy table and had a few post walk, celebratory beverages then tucked into a wonderful dinner followed by Johnny Reid and Burton Cummings (separately). A couple more drinks then off to bed - at the Renaisance Hotel (because thats how the Super Boobie Fairies roll!).
Sunday was beautiful and sunny and perfect. Oh, and hilly! VERY VERY hilly. We had a nice breakfast then trotted off to see the sights. (Unfortunately RAIN impedes ones ability to fully enjoy the neighbourhoods we walk thru...)I had the pleaseure of catching up with a couple of friends along the route. My team and I also had a lovely mid afternoon beverage at the Sunnyside Pavillion (and St Louis Bar and Grill).
We finished at the Rogers Centre and it was ... WOW! We entered down the ramp they load/unload the concert trucks on and entered at turf level. They stopped us by team and explained that they would announce our names and team name then we would enter and we would appear on the Jumbo Tron AGAIN!!!! After that we got our finishing shirts and proceeded to Closing Ceremonies! It was wonderful!!
