come play with us


The Torino Olympics is the first Winter Olympics that I was able to watch (at least on TV). South Korea being a participating team, events are being broadcast here (both delayed and live). Now I am watching Italian kids with halo singing (earlier it was Avril Lavigne) in what could be the closing ceremonies (or is this the rerun of the opening?)

Anyway, Korea ends up to be the only Asian nation in the top 10 of medal standing. It is the powerhouse in short track racing (5 gold medals of the 6 events); a very exciting game to watch, what with the possibilty of athletes skating off each other hehehe.

Korea is also bidding for the 2014 Winter Olympics.

Wondering where will I be when that time comes...

Picture above is the winter theme park of the Woobang Towerland in Daegu. They also offer begginer skiing slopes. That's Carlo after sliding down his board. Posted by Picasa
