NY20?? Posted January 12, 2010 Report Posted January 12, 2010 You can't not love a Goth Paralympic Curler! You can only hope she work weekends on the tug to support her curing passion. She's on the 2010 Look. She's made it already.
GoNutz Posted January 12, 2010 Report Posted January 12, 2010 That torch-baroness is only slightly less creepy than this severe looking curler with the Kate-plus-8 power-bob. These graphics are beyond INTERESTING. Wow, she looks like she could beat me up, on the other hand, I didn't know they had wheelchair curling, that looks fascinating! Creepy lady, cool sports pic, and strange little tug boat!

Vancouver 2010 City Walks Posted January 13, 2010 Report Posted January 13, 2010 Seems like a lot of prepartation underway!I understand that its still the leadup, but roughly how many of those white tents do you think will be still around during games-time? Seems like there are a whole lot of them out there....hopefully Vancouver isn't a 'tent-city' once the Opening Ceremonies happen... I'm guessing a lot of those tents will stay considering all of rain we're likely to get in February.
graymccarty Posted January 13, 2010 Author Report Posted January 13, 2010 Um.. WHAT is that object inside the scaffolding??? I don't want to jump to conclusions here, but it looks a little like a cauldron?

graymccarty Posted January 13, 2010 Author Report Posted January 13, 2010 With the tarp around it, it totally could be - Mr X.? I tried finding that location on Google Maps Satellite and couldn't see any pre-existing structure that resembles what we see in the picture which means it's being built right now. It's a little off to the side of sails, but it could still look good from the water! Anyone from Vancouver have a better idea of what's going on here?
Kenadian Posted January 13, 2010 Report Posted January 13, 2010 That's down by the convention centre, along the waterfront. Might be too much to speculate on a cauldron...could just be wayfinding signage.
go time baby Posted January 13, 2010 Report Posted January 13, 2010 good eye. although i think its some other structure like what kendegra said. that would be a horrible spot to have the second/outdoor cauldron. so far removed from the epicenter of the games.
graymccarty Posted January 13, 2010 Author Report Posted January 13, 2010 It may be some other structure, but it's DEFINITELY not the Canadian flag sign that you have above - if you street view it, it doesn't look anything like that. Also, I'm pretty sure the picture is taken farther west down the block, facing North West, thus missing that structure entirely.

Isn't that Canadian Flag signage shown in the first picture Mr. X Posted? If so, that would exclude it from consideration for 'whats behind the curtain'...

graymccarty Posted January 13, 2010 Author Report Posted January 13, 2010 Any luck getting pics of our new 'cauldron'?
mr.x Posted January 13, 2010 Report Posted January 13, 2010 ^ images need to be either a JPG or GIF file.
memorabilia Posted January 13, 2010 Report Posted January 13, 2010 That's down by the convention centre, along the waterfront. Might be too much to speculate on a cauldron...could just be wayfinding signage. No it looks to be at the opposite side of the new convention center, just above the seaplane base.
cormiermax Posted January 13, 2010 Report Posted January 13, 2010 The city is starting to look really really great.
