Olympic Designs: Part 3 and Shopping at The Bay

by christine on February 5, 2010

Happy Friday everyone! This week flew by so quickly. I wanted to end this week by showing you some of the cool installations inside The Bay. Enjoy…

Glossy canoes and Bay stripes on every wall, ceiling and table…

The kid’s section was like a playground… reminded me of my Disney days – where we had to put together “plush mountain” at the end of every night. These gravity pull tubes are so much more clever…

Replicas of the Olympic torch are on sale just behind the cash counter sponsored by Visa. Only Visa and cash accepted.

Elevator walls with giant murals from floor to ceiling.

These domed changing rooms in the kids section are pretty cool…

Get a closer look at the entire torch route across and around Canada.

The pin wall is situated across from the Coke-sponsored pin-trading centre and cafe. See pictures of the Coke section here.

It’s been a long week and I’m super tired from work. But I did want to post these photos from our trip downtown. I am so excited about the upcoming Games – there’s free zip-trekking across downtown!! Scary, but so cool.

Have a great weekend everyone,

Thanks for the Olympics shots Christine (+ Derrick!)
I was downtown just last week and didn’t spot some of this stuff…
Can’t wait to check it all out later this week.
