Bare Naked Ladies in concert

OK I wasn't at a stripper bar where the performers sang - there was a free concert this evening at Whistler Live in the Village Square. The Bare Naked Ladies are an iconic musical group of 4 clothed males but they are very good. They did their classic "If I had a million dollars" amongst many others . It was terrific and lasted just over an hour. A picture to prove I was there and another one of the group - I have lots of these and some snippets of recordings.

 

In the Village itself there is lots of strange things happening. The picture is a couple of Brits on stilts proclaiming the the best games ever inspite of the British press..

 

Today started very early at Dark O'Clock.. My alarm went off at 4:50am (as it will Thursday morning) and I got to the Athlete Village before breakfast at 6am.Our shift started after 7am but we did absolutely nothing all day  - the IOC did not have any missions for us as a lot of pre-competition testing had already been done and the current testing is being done right after the competitions following IOC protocols at the venues. I hope this improves as so many of us are sitting around waiting for something to do (we're kind of like firemen waiting). Our major task was to take inventory!

However I did take these 2 pictures there today - one shows the lunch menu n the workforce cafeteria and the other is my daily scenic mountain shot (this is the view the Canadian athletes have from their rooms).
 

  

Now this Old Timer , as my roomie Chris (he's 37) calls me , needs to take notes throughout the day so I can have my stories ready to go when I do this post. Here you can see me hard at work....
 

OK inspiration comes with the help of a beer or two...

Deen will be proud of what I did not do when I returned to the hotel bar. I did not have another beer but more importantly I did NOT join the singer in the bar who asked me several times to help her with some Jimmy Buffett songs. I told I was brutal and would help to clear the bar- however for my Barbados readers I can't make that same promise when I'm there in March.
