    Olympic Opening Ceremonies

    So I watched the pageantry and the computer assisted artwork on a grand scale last night when they were showing the opening ceremonies. Those people were awesome, and the show was beautiful and intricate, particularly the "History of Russia" part of it.

    I think they did really well on it. I turned it off when they started doing the speeches.

    I saw some of it but turned it off while the athletes were still entering the stadium. What I saw, I liked.

    I was surprised at how small some teams were. If I remember correctly, Belgium only had seven athletes. I know it is a small country but it is located in a climate where winter sports should be popular so I expected more athletes.

    Jamaica only had a Bobsled team.

    All opening ceremonies are worth watching, except the athlete entering part. That really needs to be done in a better way.

    I think they should be shot in using cannons.
