Olympic Torch Relay

We were so excited tonight to see the Olympic Torch pass through Derby.  One of our friends has a house that was right on the route for the relay.  We shared a wonderful meal with friends and then watched the torch go by in front of her house in a festive community atmosphere.  This was a wonderful, once-in-a-lifetime experience!
Getting ready for the torch to come!


Some really excited girls!


 The torch arrives....goes by so quick!
 Darley Abbey Park
The kids got to pose with one of the torch bearers.  A really special moment.
Pictures from the "Follow the Light" parade that followed the torch out of the park and back to the Derby City Center.
