When it was announced - all those years ago..... I never really thought they would ever be ready but it all looks pretty impressive to me. I wish I had some time and tickets.....

My thought too My sis is going on Aug 8th. I wouldn't particularly want to watch the events, but might have enjoyed a look at the surroundings. I was surprised to be quite moved by the coming together of so many countries to make up the flame bowl - maybe there is hope for mankind yet. BTW after 'that' petition about live farm animals were there any apart from the horses or did I miss a bit?

The flame thing was such a good an idea I wonder if it might go on to be used at future events. Although part of the wonder was not understanding what it was about to do at first. One of those rare 'wow' TV moments.

I've really enjoyed the equestrain stuff and almost wish I'd thought about a ticket Team GB today on winning the gold. Nick Skelton makes me feel like a wimp riding like that with a metal hip and a repaired neck! Brilliant.
