Hey Olympics fans!
Competition started a few days ago, though the opening ceremonies were on Friday. While previous Olympics have occasionally been spread over multiple venues, this is the first time that two cities (Milan and Cortino) have equal billing, with the athletes spread among multiple locations during the opening ceremonies and both cities have an Olympic cauldron.
Did you watch the opening ceremonies? Are there specific sports you like to follow? How about other aspects of the games, such as Italian food or culture, or life in Italy?
Let's discuss!
But all night, Aslan and the Moon gazed upon each other with joyful and unblinking eyes.

Yes, I got up early (Australian EDST just before 6am) to watch the opening ceremonies. I've got to say they were much better than Paris opening ceremony from 2024. Whilst being good, I don't think they matched my favourite the Sydney 2000 opening ceremony. My highlight was seeing Andrea Bocelli sing Nessun Dorma.
I love watching most of the events in the Winter Olympics, I find it hard to pick a favourite though. I was just saying to my youngest child earlier today though, that I could imagine her doing the Luge when she gets older! And I wouldn't be able to bubble-wrap her!
