The Catmobile has plans this February! Olympic plans ...

[momcat]

Hi fellow PT Purrents,
Groucho and Inka called earlier. The kitties made it to Vancouver on Thursday morning safe and sound. After breakfast they walked through the Olympic Village to locate the food stands and see the sights. While there, Inka not only saw her favorite skater, VanderPerre gave her a few scritchies. She is on a cloud.

They had great seats for the opening ceremony and the group agrees that it was awesome. Friday morning the group got a tour and met some of the athletes. They even let the kitties try doing some of the sports. Cassie, Sparkler, and Ming tried mogul skiing; Groucho and Bob tried the luge; and Mack will be joining the Catada kitties for some speed skating. We'll see what the other kitties want to try.

All I've gotten so far is a post card! The "Wish You Were Here" type. Cats.....

OH! I've been remiss in my duties, I'm so sorry. Pinot has been in touch and I didn't report! They breezed through Mt. Rushmore before heading up to Canada; Cassie was absolutely in awe, as were all the kitties. They were a little rushed due to the weather situation, but were able to see everything and then hunker down in the Catmobile for the trip to Vancouver.

At the Olympics, they're having a bit of a snow issue, so they're trucking snow down from higher elevations. Sparkler made friends with one of the drivers and went for quite a ride!! The kitties were all backstage for the exciting finish of the pairs skating routines last night; they were pleased with the results, and the girls are all excited about the skating (as well as the costumes). A good time is being had by all!! I promise I'll report when Pinot calls again!

I had a text from Cassie this morning. She couldn't get close enough to Alec Bilodeau (gold medal mogul skier) to get his picture for me, but she did catch a glimpse of him. She wants to see the Canadian hockey team play and see our 3 Blackhawks players Keith, Seabrook, and Toews play. She is also going to meow for Crosby and Fleury from the Pittsburgh Penguins for David P.

Have they gotten together with any horsie friends there? Perhaps some with Mounties?

Hi Purrents,
We have been very busy here in Vancouver seeing the sights, going to the games, and hitting the party circuit. Cassie was beside herself with Team USA winning last night's hockey game. Ming was very excited to meet Bode Miller and get a close look at his medals. In fact, he promised to take her for a ski ride this afternoon. Sparkler and Pinot have been shopping in the Olympic Village and found some great deals on mementos of our trip. We have seen our horsie friends but they're quite busy with crowd control. But there are plans for a party before we head home.
Apolo Ohno stopped by the Catmobile to say hi and make sure we have enough food and snacks. Some of the hockey players heard Cassie cheering them on and had to meet their big fan. Later on we'll be meeting up with them for lunch and our PT hockey champs can't wait to discuss strategy with them.
Well, it was a late night and I'm going to grab a nap before we start our activities for today. Just about all of my fellow kitties are sound asleep right now. Everyone is fine but tired and on their best behavior. We'll check in again soon. We hope you enjoy watching the rest of the games.
We love you

Your friend,
Groucho
