Oh the Olympics


This weekend my husband and I are in Colorado Springs. We got back to our hotel room last night and turned on the TV. We were excited to see that the Opening Ceremonies for the Winter Olympics was on. It was the Parade of Nations. What is so interesting about this, is that actually it is very long and boring, but we could not peel ourselves away from it.

We flipped through the channels several times, but for some reason were always drawn back to the Opening Ceremonies.

I'm not sure if it is the excitement surrounding the Olympics or the "spirit" of the Games, or perhaps maybe the glamour of the athletes, but we were enthralled by the long Parade of Athletes; while also bored out of our mind. A weird paradox, I know.
