The above link is to some photos that my cousin's(Paul & Nancy) kid took... does that make him 2nd cousin??
His name is Chris Reeves (no relation to Superman, but he does have some super photos). This picture of him is just outside the NOT SO SECRET POOL... the WaterCube
You might remember I found a photos of the little remote car that picked up and returned the javelin??? well, he was there, saw it in person, and has some great shots of it. Also, he was sitting in row 5 when Usain Bolt won the 100m! Pretty darn cool. And some heptatholon gals, and canoe 'ers, and baseball, and marathoners, and 5K, 800, 4 x 400's, Juan Antonoio Samarach, and a Canadian mountain biker, and closing ceremonies. Lots of good action. and of course, he saw the Great Wall (looks like he went for a run on it), Tiananmen Square, and all over Beijing.
Also, if you like National Parks and wildlife, he's got some good stuff from Utah, Colorado, and surrounds.
But I like the robot car. :) and Paula Radcliffe.
Thanks for sharing, Chris.

I meant to drop a note when I first saw Chris' pictures, but am only getting around to it now.
How great to see these photos! So much fun to see personalized photos and all the places that we didn't see on TV or in the papers or magazines. I just love looking at that Water Cube.
The gypsy in me got a thrill from the whole thing, including just the idea of going. I'm so glad I travelled when I did. I know there will be more travelling to come and seeing these pictures really kicked up that interest again.
