The cruise ship where all the police stationed in Vancouver were lodged.  Not me though!  I got a nice condo unit in Whistler!

F-18 fighter flying overhead.  Do you think we overdid it on security?

90% of my photos were landscape shots.  I might post some non-facebook-bastardized ones later.

Novelty hat shop.  The clerk in the store insisted this hat was "almost identical to the real Mountie stetson".  I laughed in her face.

On top of the world.  Never have I been so in awe of nature as on the top of this mountain.  It was absolutely incredible.

This was my noisemaker for the game.  I pounded on this thing with my hands for almost 3 hours straight.

Eh, I just didn't feel the need to take random pics of hawt chicks.

But, holy crap, rest assured that the talent walking around Whistler during the day was amazing.

Strangely enough, however, all the amazing-looking women seemed to disappear at night.

Going out to bars and clubs there were attractive women, don't get me wrong, but the stunning women seen during the day were nowhere to be found.

It didn't help that half the people in any given club at night were either off-duty cops, or other Games volunteers.

Therefore, I'd go back to Whistler for the skiing.  For the nightlife, notsomuch.
