Vancouver Olympics: Day 6 Highlights

- Woke up to Stephen Colbert live-taping out in the gorgeous sun (no joke!) Including a rendition of Oh Canada sung to the tune of The Star-Spangled Banner by Michael Buble
- Rode the free shuttle train to Vancouver's most-visited tourist attraction, Granville Island, for some delicious taco bowls and even better Granville Island Brewery beer after a tour of the facilities
- Returned to Granville Island later for P.E.I. night at the Atlantic House. The nearly two-hours lineup for Two-Hours Traffic (the band) was well worth it. Not only did we make friends with everyone (maritimers are friendly folk aren't they?) but we were treated to a tie and suspendered authentic set of music including the tune 'Turkey and the Straw'. Sounds awful? It wasn't - it was incredible. The yummy beer helped too and we partied, dancing to Two Hours Traffic (and scoring an autographed setlist) til some ungodly hour before a mid-night poutine.
