Simply Breathtaking...

The 2008 Beijing Olympic opening ceremony that is. Although I missed some of the event, a lot of the stuff I did see was amazing. You could just feel the excitement throughout the stadium...which was freaking huge if I might add. I know Olympic ceremonies are usually pretty similar in scope but this one seemed to take it a step further. For example, the artistic portions(Which towards the end included a man being lifted to the ceiling to light the final torch in spectacular fashion) were so vivid and eye popping that at times I felt it was presented to me in 3D. And the one thing I love about the Olympics are the quantity of countries that come together to represent, and compete in front of the big stage. Plus watching all those nations greet and wave their respective flags is always a great site to see. Now Let The Games Begin!
