It has started......

How exciting to hear and see so much of a country that most of us know so little about.

The reporters are saying that the opening ceremonies will be the biggest and the best we've ever seen. I don't doubt it as they seem to have unlimited resources and the support of their people behind it.

I'm especially excited about seeing the competitions Ms Torres will be swimming in. 41 years old and possiblely the best of the best.................

She wants to show that age has no boundaries when it comes to succeeding. Do you believe this?

Let the games begin I can't wait. My Niece will be #4 Rachel Buehler on the Womens Olympic (Football team) Soccer team. Their first game is the 6th against Norway.
