Yesterday was the second last day of the Olympic, and we went to downtown to catch the last bit of it.
We tried to parked our car at the science world, took us 20 min just to find a place. After we got off the car we choose to visit the science world the so call Russian House, since we are so close to it. There is a really big lineup, it will at least take an hour. People said that it is ok, not too good. We heard that there is shorter line for children in a stroller.
On the other side of the science world it is the Olympic Village, it is not open right now. I am going to see it after the Olympic. I heard the house there is expansive. I don’t think it worth it to buy a condos that cost $450,000 to $3.4 million only because a athlete lived in them.
After getting some hot chocolate from a volunteer, we moved on to the Quebec showroom. There is also a big lineup, and the food there a really expansive, it does not really worth the wait. I heard that there is also a French art show. If you don’t understand French, you shouldn’t really go.

Many people are lined up for the Ontario House, there were a 6 min 4d movie, and ?a 3d game. I had enough of 4d movies after Disney World, so I passed. I heard the food there is cheap they are all under $5. There is a show room for Concord Pacific. It is all about houses and apartments, so I think it is about selling houses. GM place is right after that, many people is trying to sell tickets. It is very busy with the hockey games and things.
We heard there is a Canada house and a Manitoba house which we didn’t go. But we went along the Dunsmuir Street, we saw the BC Hydro power Smart Village. There was a small line for curling but it was not fun. You had to answerer a question just to get in line, and the game is so small. We waited in line to go in back of a truck to watch a video, about the power smart team. It gave us a green LED light. The Village open form 10am to 10 pm.
We started to head back after that, we used the Sky train since there was not a big line up. On our way back we stopped at a Tim Hortons to get some food. It opens 24 hours a day right now.
