Great timing for this, waiting for baseball in the dead of winter.
These game coulda been ours but we had a vote on it. That being said still fun to watch, and can sympathize with the protest crowds.
On the other hand its tradition kind of a fun thing, nothing I could ever afford. But watching it on TV.
Im super late on everything lately in my life and same goes for updating the blog, but finally got to it.
Lets see some events here, watched the opening ceremony, was nice. Not a super fan of all the interpretive dance, but thats pretty much what it is.
I liked the made up English song, MAriah Carey, like the Andrea Bocelli, it was classy , and then also the house techno party athlete walk outs lol.
What else memorable so far.
Been watching the NBC, gotta love the Snoop Dogg broadcasts hes pretty lighthearted casual interviewer, but everyones eyes light up.
Whatched some slopestyle big air, seen the Lindsay vonn, Oh yea the first thing that happened was the Italian Ice skating and the interview. The Lindsay Vonn Crash. That was yesterday. Today was the Speed skating crash.
Not too much going on i’ll try to develop a commentary as I go. Still got another 12 days.
Enjoyed the luge events, yeah trying to keep up.
Womens Hockey just ended USA beat Canada 5-0..
I guess its more sliding center now, its still day time in Italy
___
Womens singles run 3. Thats what Im watching. Bad ass going down the track, the sliding center looks nice too.
Lots of drone action too.
Makes the sound of the olympics not quite sound the same. To be fair they only use the drone first quarter track if that. You hear the propeller buzz, when the steel on ice sound is really good through the tv, some issues on the camera work on the Fraebel run. Going really fast, this track has a couple upwards type roller coaster sections. Some bumping on the track. Anyways exciting. Everything happens so fast really see all the broadcast briefly. Like that neone lighting too
___
Just seen the Emily something USA sliding hit the wall then goes in at the top of the hill and sliding nearly sideways, regained control, but tense few moments to watch, as Im sure get the butterflies in the tummy lol.
After the lluge comes some team skip jumping its night time. First time I seen the jumps, very nostalgic as a Calgary viewer.
