Entry 46

 

Wow.

 

Well the opening ceremony was pretty awesome, I really wish I was there, now that would have been spectacular. The architecture was incredible, the birds nest, the swimming area, and all the others is just jaw dropping to look at. I've been awaiting to see the finished products of these buildings since last year when they did an interview of Beijing on Discovery channel. The finished product did not disappoint.

 

Now the ceremony was pretty interesting, many dazzling fireworks and various acts, one of my favorites was the scroll writing. I especially enjoyed the light drummers. ^^

 

It did get rather annoying listing to those commentators though, I really never like it when people commentate things because they ramble on about stuff not necessary to listen to during important events like this. I know there has been some issues in China recently, but I really would have appreciated it if they would have left that out during the ceremonies and let China be respected for this great honor.

 

Anyway enough politics, back to the ceremonies.

 

I was very disappointed to have missed the torch lighting but from what herd it was really cool. I stopped watching during the flag run, until USA was up and then continued after that. Once that was done I stopped watching and just drew, but I have to say overall from what I saw, it was spectacular!

 

The music was intense as well, I mean listing to Buglers Dream/Olympic Fanfare every 10 minuets, is always awesome. ^^

 

Well thats pretty much it.

 

Tah,Tah!

I really liked the thing they did with the people in the rectangles.
