Torch Relay Ahoy!
On Sunday Mrs. Evil was a torch bearer for the 2010 Olympic Torch relay. She was selected by her company the CPR, to carry the torch in Lethbridge. Photos below the cut. The flame itself was carried across the Lethbridge Viaduct by four CPR employees using a manual hand car and when it stopped at the eastern end of the bridge, Mrs. Evil was the one to light the torch from the cauldron and then head off into Lethbridge.
Prior to the arrival of the hand car, Mrs. Evil was a bit of a celebrity with people wanting their pictures taken with her and the torch, and with all the media snapping away. I'm sure that at some point she'll write about it on her blog.
