My first olympic event

Well the 11th of August has finally arrived and in a couple of hours I will be going to see my first ever Olympic event live. Men's 10m platform sychronized diving final. I think I have a decent seat It is the most expensive of the tickets I got though it still was not that expensive. I got it through the ticket lottery 15 months ago.

I have just checked and Canada is not in the event. The countries diving are:

		Australia
		Cuba
		Great Britain
		Germany
		United States
		Colombia
		China
		Russian Fed

I will be cheering for China......got to find a flag now.....

The weather is so much cooler, thank goodness. It is 73 degrees today with humidity but it is raining a bit so that will account for it.

I am also going to ride Beijing's new subways today and see what all of the hype is about.
