I can't wait as it's my favorite as well as gymnastic. It's fantastic to see every country taking a different flag, wearing different costumes. It’s going to be wild this year. How about you?

Thanks for the reminder, Lynda. Unfortunately, Friday is a working day and so I might miss quite a bit of it on TV. Those who are able to see it in person are certainly lucky. While everyone is focused on the athletes from the United States, China, Russia, and so on, I wonder how our athletes from Sri Lanka will do!

Nop, I´m going to the gym in the morning, so I won´t have the chance to see it, but I hope to see a repetition at night in the news, or maybe in my free time in my job.

It's great day for opening ceremony and would be awesome if you're in stadium. What's a pity that cannot get the tickets to join this festive atmosphere. Anyhow,  get a TV on time and sit to watch the programmes.

Cheers and Enjoy Yourselves for this quadrennial sports event Wink

The reviews so far have been excellent. Here's to quote one:

“Everything is as good as you will ever see,’’ said Peter Ueberroth, chairman of the U.S. Olympic Committee. “If I was to issue a gold medal, I’d issue the first one to the people of Beijing.

“The people you meet in the streets are kind and friendly,” Ueberroth added. “They have planted enough flowers to cover six cities."
