well, I have emerged from the Olympics cycle…

I have watched all kinds of sports, some for the first time…

as mentioned previously, I like to watch in real time and managed to do that for a good portion of the sports I was interested in… although I did sleep through one of the medals that Canada won, lol… it meant a lot of 2:30 and 4:00 am wake-up’s…

my hope for every event that I watch is that each person does their best and I like flipping between channels, if I can, to hear commentary from different points of view…

I am less interested in team sports such as soccer or basketball or football… and I’m not too fond of fighting in any of its numerous forms…

the technology at these games had some interesting highlights… I was particularly taken with the cauldron;-)…

I am happy that this portion is over and I have a few weeks before the Paralympics begin…

hopefully there will be lots of it on tv and Gem as well;-)…
