London Olympic Happenings

I have been dying to see Tower Bridge with the Olympic Rings on it, so Randi and I made our way into Central London and when we got there, the rings were not down in display! I was so irritated! We continued to walk toward the bridge and when we looked up, the rings were down!

 In that bag that I have in my hand is an official United States of America Olympic shirt that I picked up to wear to the volleyball game. Best idea EVER!

 All decked out for the volleyball game. All day we would pass people in Central and if I noticed they had any USA symbolism on their person I would then yell: USA!

 USA vs. Serbia

 USA wins!!!!!!

 We sat next to an older couple, who I think were from Scotland or Ireland, the nicest man I've met in this country. Without saying much he passed his bag of assorted toffee and shared with Randi and I. It was human kindness at it's simplest.

 Before the Italy vs. Algeria volleyball game.

 Italy vs. Algeria

Italy wins!!!

This video is from the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace. It's a quick parade before the actual ceremony. I'm too short to actually take pictures so if you want to see it, come to London.
