Default The Olympics...

Well, it didn't get off to a great start with the luge competitor dying in a terrible accident .

I am enjoying watching the opening with the First Nations performance.

Anyone else?

Fern, I usually watch primarily the ice skating, the ski jumping and maybe some of the downhill.

It was an unfortunate accident but they did have a nice tribute to him during the opening ceremonies and the standing ovation for Georgia was a nice gesture by all in attendance.

The opening ceremonies was enjoyable and well done. I can't wait to watch all the events now.

I also watched the opening, thought it was pretty good, not quite the same as the China one, but still good. Let the games begin :-)
