Ode to the Olympic Games or Why I Finally Get It

After having no interest in sports growing up, I finally appreciate the Olympic Games. This post was written as a result of the swelling of Canadian pride I felt at the accomplishments of our athletes at the Games.

What's your perspective? Do you enjoy the Olympics? Why or why not?

How does your family celebrate the Olympics?

Hooked on the Olympics

My interest in the Olympics has been heightened due to the next venue being London, where I lived for a while in the 80s.
I love watching sport, and there is no greater sporting event than the Olympic Games, summer and winter versions.
While the games are in progress, I try to watch as much live coverage as I can, I feel retransmissions are second best. Fortunately my husband loves sport too, so no clash there.

Olympic Fever

I’ve never really been one to watch the Olympic games in all honestly, I found them boring as a child, I’d much rather have seen what Bugs Bunny was up to or tuned into Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles…you know, things with real passion eh? However, this year I actually sat down and watched the opening ceremonies, and from that moment on I was stuck on the Olympics.
