Spectacular!

Liu Huan & Sarah Brightman - You and Me

Beijing Olympics 2008
Opening Ceremony
Last night's opening ceremony started at 8hr8min8sec
I AM AMAZED

National Stadium / Bird's Nest From www.boston.com

How on earth did they lift thousands of luminated lights
with non-visible suspension??

Go figure!

Massive scroll
The official stage

What are they wearing on their heads??

Moving boxes with lovely blossoms

Beneath the moving boxes

Men involved in that particular performance
yeap, it was not machine operated, but humans!

The much anticipated moment

Gymnastic champion from China - Li Ning

Like the ever popular "shoulin master" flying in air

Splendidly AMAZING
Estimated $40billion spent on the entire event!

Jaw dropping isn't it??

More pictures from www.xinhuanet.com and www.boston.com

Look at the amazing costumes and you can roughly guess how much they had to spend
Not to mention the massive scale of back drop
and the countless number of people involved!!

The next country would have high expectations live up to.

If you missed it, catch the repeat on Astro 816-824

It's a MUST WATCH!

I'm now scribbling CHINA onto my list of places to visit :D


AND... Must catch women's volleyball!

The Brazilians are effing brilliant
tall, fast and cunning! I

It's only the first day and I'm already hooked.

I'm in deep shit :x
