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 scrollThe official stage
What are they wearing on their heads??
Moving boxes with lovely blossoms
 Beneath the moving boxes
Men involved in that particular performanceyeap, 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 airEstimated $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.
