Vancouver Vicariously

My sister Caitlyn made it safely into Vancouver and is enjoying cheering on our friend Jinelle and her team! USA beat China 12-1 yesterday!

Here are some photos from Cait's trip (some were taken by the Zaugg family and posted on Jinelle's blog here, and some are from Cait's Facebook). She's in her final trimester, so she can't stay for the final week of the Olympics, but she'll see the first three games! She had to get special permission from her doctor to travel up there. Now that's a good friend. Of course, it's not every day your best friend plays hockey in the Olympics!


Cait has met tons of Olympic athletes (including gymnastics gold medalist Shawn Johnson, who apparently was a bit cranky about having her picture taken) and Jinelle's gotten to play hockey in front of VP Biden, meet Governor Arnold, and take her photo with Shawn White (who reportedly was a really friendly guy in person).

Next game is Tuesday afternoon on MSNBC. Anyone in Jersey have this channel and want to be my friend? :)
