Everyone, I’m sure, knows that the 2012 Summer Olympics are underway…and that they games are being hosted by London.
Have you watched the opening ceremonies?
Did you see “James Bond” escort the Queen of England to the games by helicopter…and “the Queen” parachuted in?
And Mr. Bean playing with the orchestra? David Beckham driving a speed boat? And the “legend” himself, Muhammad Ali?
It was a pretty good opening ceremony. I enjoyed watching it (on television…I’ve never seen an Olympics event “in person”. The closest that I came was when my wife and I took the 新幹線 (bullet train) to 長野 (Nagano, Japan) in 1998 to see the “Olympic city” atmosphere).
Anyways, are you watching any of the games?
Which events do you like best?
Last night, I watched Japan “almost” get gold in men’s judo…but lost to Georgia.
So far, the top three countries with medals won are China, America, and Italy.
Japan is currently in 15th place.
