Canada/ New York
March 9, 2010
Hi..
it is done..I never thought before that I could do a whole year, but today the 365 days of marek’s world tournee is over..
It was the best time in my live and thanks a lot to all the awesome people that I’ve met on the way. I flew from Cancun to Vancouver, Canada.. I arrived in the Hostel and met two German guys who worked for the winter Olympics.. One of the guys, Leon joined me to my friends party, we had a great night view of English bay..
Everybody knows, that Vancouver hosted the 2010 winter Olympics, but the weather was more like spring, so we went two days to the beach and had some beers..
I planned to spent one week in Whistler (biggest Ski resort in Canada) but the ski pass was 100 bucks a day, so I stayed only two days.. ![]()
It was nice to snowboard and I watched the downhill ski for free.. Since it was my first winter Olympic experience, I decided to attend one event..I bought a ticket for the hockey game Finland vs. Belarus and enjoyed the game in the first row, direct on the rink.. Yeah..
The day after I flew to Toronto, to meet my friend Marissa who I’ve met in Mexico before.. She invited me to stay with her.. On the way to visit Marissa’s friend we stopped for ten minutes to see Niagara falls.. Ten minutes were enough..
A few days later, we took a road trip to Montreal where we ice skated in the Old Port and we had great bagels.. Back to Toronto watched the hockey final downtown, Canada won Gold, great atmosphere and we enjoyed the sunny days in small cafes .. Thank you so much.. I’ve had a great time.. It was amazing, awesome. ![]()
Last three days in New York: shopping, walking, being a tourist and spent a great day with Marissa again..XX
