A handover ceremony at the Panathenian Stadium, where the first modern Games were held in 1896, in Athens, Greece, on October 29, 2009. After an eight-day trip through Greece, the flame will be flown to Canada for a 28,000-mile journey which organizers say will be the largest national relay. Greece on Thursday handed the Olympic flame to Canada, host of the 2010 Winter Games, setting it off for the biggest-ever national relay ahead of the February 12 opening ceremony.
