It looks like they currently have figure skating available, but not much else. I imagine it won't be long before they have everything.

It is (I know this for sure, because I am going there this summer) happening in British Columbia, Canada. More specifically, Vancouver, and the surrounding areas. There are numerous mountains for the downhill (skiing and snowboarding) events to take place at. The indoor events (ice skating, curling, etc.)- as well as the opening/ closing ceremonies- will happen right in Vancouver. I'm not sure where the nordic, and other outdoor events will happen, but probably just outside the city. They have really great facilities everywhere, so even though they have a lot of work to do, they already have a great head start. Also, I know from experience, the village at Whistler/ Blackcomb are great "tourist" attractions, and there is a great deal to do right in Vancouver.

The 2010 Winter Olympics are being held in Vancouver, Canada. Are you asking the question as a disgruntled Canadian voter or as someone who has been told their house will be demolished to make way for an Olympic venue?

Michelle Kwan was born July 7, 1980 and is currently 25 years old. This Winter Olympics is probably her last probable chance to get an Olympic gold. The next winter olympics would be in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada in 2010. She would be 29 years old then, which is considered "ancient" in figure skating.

WhistlerBlackcomb (two mountains in British Columbia that form one resort) are outside of Vancouver.  There are gondolas to both mountains in Whistler Village, which is a nice little, modern pedestrian village (the main part of the village is pedestirian only with shuttles to the numerous hotels and ski resorts)  Whistler will co-host the 2010 Olympics with Vancouver.\n\nAlso, Whiteface Mountain in NY is about three hours from NYC, and is nine miles from the town of Lake Placid, NY.  Whiteface co-hosted the 1932 and 1980 Olympics with Lake Placid.

First of all, I'm glad to see that somebody else besides me would prefer the olympics to be a sporting event, and not a biography on obscure athletes.  I can't stand to watch the olympics, because they never actually show any sports.\n\nBut... to answer your questions, it won't be all focused on ice skaters in mini skirts.  There will also be advertisements every 4.5 minutes.

Indeed it will be South Africa. The next one (2014) will take place in South America (the way it's done is continents take turns). My guess is it will be in Brazil.
