Beijing Olympics

  1. I've just returned from the Beijing Olympics. What a rush! I was very impressed with how Beijing handled the event. The subway was great, announcing in both Chinese and English.
  2. I saw Women's Basketball- the US team tromped on the Chinese team. Men's Volleyball-China tromped on Venezuela. Handball-not the squash-like sport I expected. And Men's Archery-much more intense than I expected. My only disappointments were how little I saw the sun, due to the smog, and , of course, the "run around" I went through to get to the handball court!
  3. All around a gret trip! See China!
