London August 1st

Great day for Canadian swimming with Brent Hayden getting Canada's first swimming medal, a bronze in the 100m freestyle. Martha McCabe is in finals tonight for 200m breast stroke, go Martha! Canada's women's 4x200m freestyle relay had a great swim to fourth place.

We walked to Buckingham Palace to see the queen, but I think she was napping at the time. Pretty gutsy to jump from a chopper with 007 and make a good landing to enter for the Olympics.  The guards actually get to move every once in a while.
We met up with Alec and took him to Canada House off of  Trafalgar Square.
