Olympic Torch Run

My husband Don, was chosen to carry the Olympic Torch on New Year's day 2010. 01/01/2010. The area he was chosen to carry it was a little place called Virginiatown, population 700. Now you might be wondering where Virginiatown is, so did we. It's about 40km east of Kirkland Lake near the Quebec/Ontario border, north of New Liskeard. From Barrie it's a 6 hour drive north.

Not only was Don carrying it on the first day of the year but he was also the first torchbearer of the New Year.

I'll get into more detail later about our trip but here are a few pics.
