Hi Guys,
Well what an exciting day we had! It was our first day working up at the media centre at Whistler Creekside. We arrived at work around 7:30 and loaded the chair lift that we take to get up to the "Timing Flats." That is where the media centre is located, right at the bottom of the race course.
There are no races going on at the moment, everything starts on Saturday. We spent the day learning about the area, inside and out. Heather will spend some days working in the centre helping media and some days outside at the finish line. We helped to organize the centre and make the change from Olympics to Paralympics. Although there wasn't anyone from the media there today, it was still very exciting!! The people we work with are all young and very nice, everyone is there to support the athletes and have fun.
There was a lot of information tossed around today about what Heather is doing, who she'll be speaking with and what cool things she'll get to see.
You'll have to check back tomorrow to hear more about it!
See you tomorrow,
Pip and Heather
