The Athens Games have begun ... it's the Olympic Games!
What an opening! By far the most impressive show I've seen - but, then again - ain't that always been the case. Every host of the Games tries to outdo the previous one - actually, almost everyone aside from Atlanta 96 - that was a so-so show.
The lighting of the Olympic cauldron that will burn for 16 days has always been the highlight of the opening ceremony. This time round it was pretty impressive as well - not all hi-tech or pryo, but full of spirit with a majestic touch to it.
Does anyone has the most favourite lighting ceremony of them all? For me, it got to be the bow-and-flaming-arrow show of the Games in Barcelona in 1992.
Let the Games begin ...
