Well finally, the Olympics opening ceremony is almost here -- it's tomorrow evening! Yea!A neighbor of mine is having an opening ceremony party complete with authentic Chinese cuisine and plenty of cheering.
If we set aside the political conflicts, it is really exciting that athletes on this very elite level are getting together to compete. I find it really interesting to hear the stories of how people became athletes or their story of how they got to the olympic level.
I love to watch the water sports -- swimming and diving. The track events always keep me on the edge of my seat. And the gymnastics event always amaze me -- those gymnists are incrediblly nimble.
What's your favorite Olympic event?
