Olympics

"It's gonna look just like the pictures," I thought to myself. "It's not even old, what's so special?" But while walking up the stairs out of the subway, the sight of Bird's Nest, Water Cube, Olympic area in general overwhelmed me; my jaw pretty much hit the floor. The pictures really do not give the nest and cube due justice (still pretty though).

Olympic Tower

After walking out of the subway and through security, the eight of us roamed around the large pavilion soaking in the majestic surroundings. The Bird's Nest, Water Cube, and the Olympic Tower all change colors at night, so we were all mezmerized for a bit. Although our attempts to hop the fence of the bird's nest failed (they didn't let people in at night), we did manage to get into the water cube (legally by buying tickets).

(Note: because my arms move faster than the speed of light, they distort the space-time continuum, and therefore are not visible)

Inside the water cube, we roamed around, and spent a lot of time in the olympic arena making letters and faces (pictures will explain). O, and the water cube's bubbles are actually bubbles of air. So cool. All around a good time.
