The ceremony was indeed very beautiful! I wanted to see the Belgians passing by, and fell asleep for about an hour, and guess who I have missed? Right!
But anyway, it was very nice. Must have been a lot of money.

I was quite impressed that the Greek people had actually managed to put everything there right in place ! I mean, I didn't expect they would be ready with all the buildings and everything !

The USA has never won a gold medal in fencing, a sport dominated by Europeans. But maybe this year.
Quote:


Women's Saber
Sada Jacobson | Emily Jacobson | Mariel Zagunis

Analysis by Team Captain Jeff Bukantz:

"No need to mince words: the United States has three fencers qualified in Women's Saber, and all three are ranked in the top ten in the World. Sada Jacobson is #1, Mariel Zagunis is now tied for #4, and Emily Jacobson is #10. It is no exaggeration to say that all three are favorites for bringing home medal - and just maybe the first United States Fencing Gold in 20 years."

i have the same thought, spick. no biggie there.

as for the opening, yes, it was beautiful, considering the fact that i missed 2/3 of it.

i love the fireworks. no wonder Luc was raving about it few months ago. she just couldn't do any work while fireworks were tested out. just standing there, with mouth gaping, WOW! well at least i know that will happen to me.

greece is indeed very beautiful & gets more beautiful as i keep watching the outdoor sports; e.g. cycling.

*janggut wishing local tv channels would show volleyball matches*
