It's been quite long time since I have written a blog, the last blog that was written was at the end of 2011! :O
Anyway, today I write here to commemorate a very special day as we have an event that can only happened once every 4 years- The OLYMPICS!
The Olympics that is going to take place is in London, UK- Where I lived!
I've been going around London nowadays only to find the sight of loads of people and fact that it is clearly prepared for the Olympics!
Here is the Olympic Lane.
Lots of people at Angel waiting for the Olympic Torch Relay. Same goes for the one on the bottom.

The Olympics opening ceremony 27/7/12
The Olympics opening ceremony was held in London, Stratford which started at 9pm, yesterday. At the beginning, we can see an overview of London, giving us an sense of what London is like. Later on, we see Mr James Bond (Daniel Craig) visiting Her Majesty, The Queen in Buckingham Palace and escorts her to the helicopter. We then see them take off and on the way from birds eye view we see people waving at the helicopter.
The camera cuts off to show that the Helicopter has arrived above the Olympics stadium. We see James Bond opening the helicopter door checking to make sure whether the coast is clear and later on giving a slight nod as a signal to say it is safe for The Queen to jump XD. The Queen jumped first followed on by James Bond to the theme tune of James Bond. After such an entrance, we see The Queen and IOC President Jaques Rogge arrived at the stadium.
The next event we see was a unique making of factory and the setting of olden time in the UK, showing revolution that has happened British society. It was very creative and captivating. Afterwards we see a humorous event of Rowan Atkinson playing just one note on the piano along with the London Symphony Orchestra playing Chariots of Fire. XD Consequently, we see JK Rowling delievered a reading and throughout we get to see a performance by the NHS and much more!!
At the end of the opening ceremony, we see David Beckham on a powerboat with the olympic torch making his way through the Thames to the stadium.
Last but not least we see a sensational and symbolic representation of the cauldron being lit up.
