Did you know? We’re crazy for the Winter Olympics (okay, crazy for downhill skiing and a little bit of speed on the bobsled track). But you might like to follow our four-year installments – maybe someday you’ll get the bug.
2018 Pyeong Chang, China
Mark made the boys’ trip again. Nothing short of terrific, he would assure you. He even got to sit with Mikaela Shiffrin’s posse. Photo or two to come (Mikaela Shiffrin downhill courtesy: Pyeong Chang Olympics homepage 2018).
2014 Sochi, Russia
In the works… flights are booked, event tix are purchased and you’ll have to drool over this photo credit until I get my own chance (courtesy: Sochi Olympics homepage 2013).
2010 Vancouver, Canada
Nikki was pregnant, so she couldn’t ski (oh, no, no, I am not IN the Olympics, just an active bystander) but there was plenty to do in the Village. We got up-front tickets to the gold medal crowning of Bode Miller for his awesome alpine skiing.
And if you’re not sure who THIS is (no, I’m not talking about the gentleman on the right), then you had better brush up on your Olympics trivia before you consider a trip. (Hint: THE legendary Alberto Tomba. There, you know all you need to know – you can join us now.)
2002 Salt Lake City, Utah
Close to home and yet feeling so far away as we surrounded ourselves with international competitors and spectators from across the globe.
