Torch Relay - Day 2 - Greenwich City

Today we will travel to the 2nd leg of the relay at Greenwich City!

Sorry 'bout the delay folks!
( This was recorded from Day 2 of the Simlympic Torch Relay on GBC, Greenwich Broadcasting Corporation)

Tim: Good afternoon, and welcome to the second day of the Simlympic Torch Relay, hosted by our own Greenwich City!
Joe: Right you are, Tim! The mood is very festive as we prepare for the torch to come down this way. Look at all- Look! There it is! Ladies and gentlemen, the Simlympic torch has started down this way now...



Joe: We can now see it as it passes down Hickory Creek Blvd. The procession consists of the torch, the Greenwich Republic team follows, and a parade is behind that.
Tim: And I just wanted to point out that this flame will have to travel all the way to Leah, where it will light the Simylmpic flame, signifying the start of the games.
Joe: Yes Tim! And as a reminder to all of our viewers in Greenwich and around the world, we will be broadcasting the Simlympics live from Leah on GBC, so join us as we will be at the games!



Tim: And now it has just crossed over onto Franklin Ave, and we can see it now passing in front of the museum of science and technology...
Jim: Yeah, great museum, Tim. I think they have an exhibit on the history of the Apple Computer Company, you should check it out.
Tim: Sounds cool...



Tim: And thats one of the things I love about Greenwich City and the surrounding areas, there's so much to do! You can go here, Hickory Creek, and if you want to go skiing you can just drive on over to Redding...
Joe: And speaking of Redding, it is one of the candidate cities to host the 2010 Winter Simlympics. Hopefully it will get picked!



Tim: Well we can now see it turn into the financial district, onto University Ave, and that building right there is the Citigroup Tower, which happens to be the tallest in the Republic!
Joe: It makes me so amazed when I see architectural marvels such as that, all the manpower put in to making it.



Tim: Here we see the torch pass through the University District. Right there is Franklin Christmas Park, home of the FSU Musketeers.
Joe: Its amazing all the attention this torch is getting! The crowd is going wild!



Tim: And this looks like we are nearing the end of the Torch Relay at the Burj al Greenwich Hotel, where it will stay for the night, and a flame will be lit on top of the tower to guide Greenwich through dark times. The flame has been lit there for the past 10 years and is now tradition.
Joe: Well, as we near the end of the Torch relay, I'm Joe Stevens saying good evening and have a great day! We'll see you tonight for the fireworks show in Hickory Creek.
Tim: Thanks for watching! We'll see you back here later!


(Later that evening...)

Tim: Welcome back to GBC Sports, I'm Tim Ellington here with Joe Lieschwitz.
Joe: And right now we're getting ready for our fireworks show, which should start in a few minutes!
Tim: Joe, I've gotta tell ya, I've always loved fireworks, ever since I was a little kid...
Joe: Look, Tim, they've started!



Tim: Well, thanks for joining us, we'll see you at the Simlympics in Leah!

As many of you have noticed, some of my pictures have crowds edited into them, some do not. I have been working in Photoshop, however, and I do assure you that all of them have a "crowd" version. However, my internet only is getting 1 mbps right now!

Nice , Those are some huge crowds!

Very Nice! =)

Better late than never!

Great relay, particularly like the first picture; the trees look lovely .
