Visitors
form all over the world ran through the streets of Salt Lake City and Park
City, UT. We would never have known how many people actually came to witness
the Salt Lake 2002 Winter Games, if we had not ventured out to see for
ourselves.
Lori and I went and played
tourist for an evening as we journeyed to Park City Main Street. Utilizing
my knowledge of the area traffic and the transportation planner that I
am we headed for the Silver summit park and ride lot. The lot is capable
of holding over 8,500 vehicles. Buses wait to transfer you on a ten minute
ride to main street. The lot was also set up to serve venue traffic bound
for Park City Resort, Deer Valley and the Soldier Hollow complex.

Park
City Main Street was alive with people milling about the restaurants, bars
and stores. The line for the Roots clothing store and the Jamaican Team
Store were way too long. We beat it off Main to go to dinner.
Another night found us Downtown Salt Lake City at the medals plaza area. Again doing the tourist style pictures at the Hallmark photo booth and in the street.
