THANK YOU, Rolex!!!
For the wonderful time we had yesterday. It started with a call from my AD, asking if I was a tennis fan. Yep. So, I went and picked up this:
 Hmm, I wonder what's in there......   This is starting to look good....  I'll be darned, 2 tickets to watch the Rogers Cup finals, Roger Federer vs Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, from Rolex Canada's private suite...  ...complete with valet parking...  Yep, we're here  The Rolex hospitality suite was air conditioned, the food was delicious and the drinks even better. We were greeted by Victor Royce, President and CEO of Rolex Canada, and Mrs. Royce. Opening ceremonies  Watching the doubles final earlier in the afternoon  On to the singles finals, Roger Federer launching a missile  Heading home  On our way out, we were given gifts  a beautiful Rolex silk scarf for Nancy  and a golf umbrella for me  Unfortunately, Roger Federer came up short this time, with Tsonga winning in straight sets. It was a marvellous day though, with this being the very best part.  P.S. Wanna know what the Rolex CEO wears to a tennis match? An Everose Sky-Dweller on a leather strap.
