The Olympic Opening Ceremonies, scheduled for this Friday, should be fantastic. It may take a lot for you to watch TV on a beautiful Friday evening but this should be will worth it.
The people of China have been waiting for the chance to show the world the beautiful side of their country as well as the subtle warmth of the people for over 20 years. I do not think they will fall short on this opportunity.
For the sake of all of our athletes, I hope it is a great experience for them as well.
We have several locals we can celebrate. Best wishes to Garrett Weber-Gale a swimmer and one of the 5 fastest in the world.
