Great that you saw a good variety of sports at the Olympic Games. Your photos really captured being there. Michael Phelps - what an absolute legend, it is an honour to see him swim. I noticed you attended the Basketball - I actually saw the 1992 US Dream Team play their quarter final at the Barcelona Olympics - Barkley, Bird, Jordan, Johnson, Pippen - that was also an honour to attend such a game!

Wow! You guys shine and rock.
What a fantastic experience for you both. Sounds so exciting. I watched those interviews and looked for signs in the crowd, but didn't see yours. Oh, well......thanks for sharing.
