I love the Dutch!

The last couple days have been spend working with families of Athletes in the Canadian Paralympic House.

We have had many athletes come into the house which has given me a rare glimpse into the lives of these world class elite athletes. I have held medals of many different colours and talked to all the athletes. Some of the most inspiring people I have ever met in my life.

Today was a special day, our next door neighbours have been the Dutch who have been nothing but amazing and friendly to us. Today they won there first ever Winter Paralympic medal (a gold no less) and we got to enjoy part of the celebration. In that I was given from one of the coaches a bib that all the Snowboard athletes signed for me. A truly Paralympic moment.

Only 2 more days of competition to go!
