The Ceremony was cool but definitely made more for TV than for a live audience. I didn't know if I would ever have the chance to go to another Opening Ceremony of an Olympic Games so I was happy to take the tickets but I do wish that it was outside. It was sooooo hot in there, it felt more like the summer Olympics but they did a really nice job with lighting and adding "snow" on the ground to give it an outdoor feel.

Team USA!!
Team Canada! A little far away I know but we still had really good seats!
Me in my ugly poncho we had to wear. It was more like a blanket though it was so hot however we had to wear them in order for the production to work so they could project the flags and other lighting effects onto us during the ceremony. If it wasn't for this ugly thing none of those effects would have worked!
Thank me later! :) Talk soon!
Great seats. Canada made me proud - they did an amazing job on the ceremonies.
ReplyDeleteLove the poncho. You make any ole thing look adorable.
Happy Valentines Day. Love Mom
Yeah Kara! So glad you went to the opening ceremonies...what a unique experience! This olympics has been more fun for me, just knowing you are there and involved!
ReplyDeleteSteph and I are glad you went, we didn't want you to miss out on that opportunity. We just tried cross country skiing ourselves, and I think we will leave it to the pros!
