Let the games begin!

What a tragedy to lose a young athlete before the games officially begin. But the show must go on. The opening ceremonies were dedicated to the memory of Nodar Kumaritashvili.

Just some random thoughts since it is late and I am tired. Why do “famous” singers insist on interpreting national anthems? It is amazing that one could hear the proverbial pin drop during the moment of silence. I was astounded at the sight of 60,000 spectators wearing the white ponchos provided. (David Atkins wanted the audience to resemble a canvas.) Who knew all those performers were Canadian?

Oops! A malfunction with the lighting of the torch.
