...
Pretty soon the fire in the cauldron will be gone. I won't see it go just as i didn't saw it being lit. Didn't saw the opening ceremony and the same will be the case with the closing, and this i regret a bit, because these shows where always big events to watch on the tv while i was growing up,
but also, i dont have a tv set now and no one to watch as my cousins aren't interested in winter sports and the rest of my family is too far away. I watched the games on bbc online, not everything, and not compulsively, and often in the background while doing knitting. I cheered mostly for strangers, for good games, for people whose few-line backround stories cathced my attention or just had a catchy name; i cheered for brits and hungarians in particular - when i could get snippets of them, when not, i had to do with poles and any neighbourghs like slovaks and slovenians and austrians. Or anyone. They where good games, great moments, lots of fog and snow, and well, canada can cheer :)Next up in one and a half years : London. Can't wait :)
