Paralympics

The paralympics are coming up, so I thought I would go to a few events.
You should try going to a few events because tickets are very cheap, compared to the Olympics that just ended. https://frontline-tickets.vancouver2010.com/buy/TicketSales?agency=OLMP_MYTIXX&roomid=5
The sledge hockey will be pretty cool to watch, but that sport is popular, from what I hear, so I think it will be hard to get tickets for that.

Here is some news from the 2010 paralympic Winter Games. I think the games coming up will still be exciting, even though a lot of tourists have gone home, leaving the streets of VanCity dead.
Some events to be at for the paralympic games:
BC Hydro Powersmart Village
Canada's Northern House
CentrePlace Manitoba
GE Plaza (Robson Square)
LiveCity Downtown
Olympic Cauldron (very nice)

Hopefully Vancouver will be still fun, even though the Olympics are over, with the Canucks looking to make a deep playoff run. There is still Stanley Park to walk, rollerblade, or to have fun on the beach, and the fireworks that happen every Summer, which is always fun and entertaining.

The Canucks won last night against Columbus...in overtime. It seems that the NHL players, now that the Olympics are over...aren't as fast or skilled as the Canadain team.
The Canucks got Andrew Alberts (one of my favourite players, when he was with the Giants), Yan Stastny, and PC Labrie through the trade deadline.
