TTT-anyone else going-I enjoyed reading from everyone who went to the olympics 4 years ago. Trip reports, please.

For a trip report of my initial visit to Torino in Jan., check out the "Wanna Attend" page of this web site: www. olympicproportions.net

Congratulations to all who's attending in person! 'D>

I will watching the openings and everything else I can from the best seat in the house - the loveseat in front of our TV quot;>

Have already a very appropriate, I hope, bottle of Moscato... made in California, yikes!

Oh, well, life is not always fare :'(

Watching the opening ceremonies (from home) as I type. It's interesting to hear the Italian announcer pronounce the names of the various countries. He just announced "Repubblica Ceca," or in English, the Czech Republic. Now "Cile," or in English, Chile. Yes, I'm easily entertained.

Japan in Italian is "Giappone." Shutting down the computer now.
