My patriotism and my love of sports feels like it is at an all-time high this evening, building on last night’s amazing men’s hockey win against Russia and wicked runs on the bobsled track are now taken further with the Gold medal in women’s hockey and sitting down to watch the last of figure skating. I’ve really been quite taken with these Olympics compared to four years ago, when I just couldn’t get into it.
Tomorrow promises to go even further, as I head out to watch the women’s curling Gold followed by the men’s semi-final in hockey.
I wonder what has me so entranced with these games – is it just the venue? Or is it something else? And I know I’m not alone – my whole family has spent every night of these games watching and cheering on our athletes, starting at the opening ceremonies. I’m looking forward to the last weekend and intend to do my best to cheer on our athletes as they compete for gold!
