I was coming out of the hotel restaurant after breakfast this morning, and there, by the cashier, was a guy holding an Olympic torch. His name is Gilles Goasdue, and he had just participated in the torch relay.

Hope you and your family have fun. And it looks like you're creating a lot of memories.

Appears he's happy to see you.

That's not the kid from the Harry Potter movies, is it? 'Cause I heard they let the ginger carry the torch. Looks like it burned his hair off.

Why doesn't Dave show up when I'm walking around with an Olympic Torch? Another great picture from Sophie. Ditto on what Steve said.

Dave, you know...that would look great over the mantel, or perhaps in the Christmas Gift Guide.
As our British friends would say, a hint to the wise is sufficient.
