As I write this, the spectacular Beijing Olympic games opening ceremonies are underway. I made sure I was up early enough to catch some of the event on TV while I was getting ready for work this morning. I don’t know about you, but it’s always moving for me when my country enters the stadium at the games. Today was no different.

A few weeks back I got a call from our partners at the Canadian Red Cross asking if they could borrow some life jackets for a photo shoot with the Olympic Swim Team. How could I say no? I have uploaded the pictures to our Flickr page.

I’ll have another Olympic story to share with you in days to come. In the mean time, Go Canada!
