Day 106 Olympic Torch Relay: Vancouver, British Columbia

Run with Chris Wheeler on the last day of the Olympic Torch Relay! The Flame journeys around Vancouver through Stanley Park, English Bay, Robson Square, Yaletown and ends with a cauldron lighting at the Four Host First Nations Pavilion. The First Nations Fire Attendants then take the Flame to the Opening Ceremony for the beginning of the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics. The Olympic Torch Relay travelled around Canada for 106 days, 45000 kms, through 1100 communities, and the Flame was carried by 12000 Torchbearers. It was an experience of a lifetime chasing the Flame around Canada. Now the Olympics are here and Vancouver welcomes the world! This is Torch Relay Reporter Chris Wheeler signing off, and we'll see you during the Games! Follow the Flame at: www.hellobc.com
