Foto Friday: Vancouver 2010 Olympics- The Athlete’s Village

I’m in Chicago this weekend, but actually had time to write this post and schedule for another Foto Friday!

Here are some pictures of the Olympic Athlete’s Village in Vancouver.  The Village was closed to the public, but there were great views from the Cambie Street bridge.

You can see the Swiss flag, Russian, Fin, Australian and of course, Canadian flags!

These buildings have been/will be converted into condos and some buildings will be used for affordable housing.

THE famous Australian Boxing Kangaroo flag…this thing is HUGE!

There was a bit of controversy about this flag, since it’s not approved by the IOC.  But somehow, it survived.

The Canadian condos:
