Olympic Excitement

O.k., I gotta admit that I've become rather addicted to the Olympics this year. I mean, sure, I've watched them before, but never with such dedication. Which has actually been quite a challenge since I don't really have a T.V. here... But it's worked out all right. Though I'm sad to see them end.

Still, there are certain "sports" which I just find amusing, too. Like fencing. And the "modern" pentathlon. What's up with that? And synchronized swimming. Beautiful, sure, but odd, no? And walking? When did that become an Olympic competition? So, what do you think are the strangest events, in either summer or winter Olympic Games?

Well, anyway, I just wanted to share this fantastic collection of Olympic photos with you all. Check 'em out if you haven't already. Makes me want to be a photographer... Oh, and enjoy the closing ceremony tonight!
