I'm sad that the Olympics are over. They probably last just the right amount of time, but I love watching the events and hearing the stories. Here are some of my favorites from London:
- The Olympic rings on Tower Bridge
- David Beckham driving the speed boat up the Thames with the torch
- Mr. Bean playing Chariots of Fire with the orchestra
- Our own gold medal cyclist, Kristen Armstrong
- Missy Franklin's great smile, great swimming, and enthusiasm
- Michael Phelps!
- Pistorious running on the South Africa team with his blades
- Gabby Douglas and the fab five gymnists
- The US Women's Soccer team and their gold medal
- Anyone running the hurdles
- Usain Bolt - What a runner! - What a perfect name!
- Kirani James' 400 meter dash, the first gold medal for Grenada
- May and Walsh getting their 3rd gold medal in women's beach volleyball
- The royals showing up to events - Loved every outfit of Kate's
What I didn't like:
- Our basketball dream team and all the professional tennis players - That's not what the Olympics is all about!

I miss the olympics as well.
I hear rugby is going to be in there next time.
I'm excited for New Zealand.
