There were not as many people dressed in their country's colours as in the Vancouver Olympics, but that didn't stop us from representing!

Brydone, Fin and Lauren on our way to watch volleyball

Beach volleyball turned out to be one of the best venues at the Olympics with an amazing skyline view of London landmarks

We saw two women's games, and two men's games. All of them were action packed!

Three Canadians and one Brit... from the look of us you wouldn't know that Canada wasn't even competing in this event...

The Canada House didn't allow public access so we sought out the only Canadian bar in London

We started the next day by trying to get into the Olympic Village, but it turned out only guests with event tickets were allowed in. We regrouped and headed to the Hyde Park live site instead. It was a huge venue with 4 massive screens for watching events, restaurants, beer gardens and a line up of bands performing on the main stage.

The Hyde Park live site was packed with a lot of Union Jack's flying everywhere

We spent the afternoon with Lauren's friend Tim who she met while traveling in Thailand and Larysa who we hadn't seen since Katie's wedding in Toronto. It's always fun to meet up with friends overseas! Also great to have local tour guides!

81,000 people all watching Mexico beat Senegal 4-2 in Wembley Stadium! It was an awesome experience until 81,000 people all tried to get into the same tube station afterwards!

The Irish House wasn't much more than a converted Irish bar, but it was still a great way to spend our last night. Our buddy Ryan who is a cameraman for the Olympics joined us in late night shenanigans
