Southbound travellers wondering just how many days are left before the 2010 Winter Olympics arrive need wonder no more.
An Olympic countdown clock was unveiled this week on Semiahmoo First Nation land outside the Peace Arch Duty Free Shop.
The clock is a reminder of the Games interest that is brewing among B.C. residents, store president Peter Raju said in a press release.
Raju said more events are planned at the 255 Hwy. 99 store in the coming months, including indoor and outdoor promotions, live music and food pairings.
