Olympic Torch Relay

I know it's nothing to do with books at all, but I just have to share these photos from the Olympic Torch Relay this morning. There wasn't much of a crowd at this spot so I got some great photos. I think I'm finally getting into the Olympic spirit.

 

  

  

  

  

  

I knew the torch was going to be passing by that location, but I hadn't expected as good a view as I got (was expecting a lot more people to be there, but most went to the party-spots (I went to one of them later in the morning and it was absolutely packed), so I got a great view (and one of the free flags). I thought all I was going to see was the torch going by. What a surprise when the flame got passed to the next bearer right in front of me. I think the photos tell the story of that well enough on their own.
