Abnormally Large Grapes & Winter Olympics.

I've spent this evening watching the Winter Olympics in Vancouver. Not in Vancouver, sadly. Just at home. :) But, whenever I want to watch something exciting like the Bobsleigh or speed skating, or skiiing, or something, it's always showing curling. Apparently it's 'really difficult', but really, it is incredibly boring watching people sweeping. So, each to their own.

So, tonight it was the Ski Cross, which is incredibly exciting.

The most interesting bit is when they fall over, it always is.
So tonight, they showed some highlights of bobsleigh, showing someone's horrific ice burns from falling out of the bobsleigh. Which look absolutely horrendously painful. And also, on the Ski Cross, I've seen people battling to get infront, all whilst going around corners and jumping over various things. On skis. It's pretty technical, really. But also inevitable that some of them will fall over. :) And, t'other day was speed skating. Where they have ice skates, and go really fast round a track, for a long distance, just lapping. And when they all knock each other over, it's also very funny. But also, when the speed skaters go around the corner, they are going at such an angle that they can touch the floor with their hands. 'mazing.

I guess this one has just been a long ramble at how amazing winter sport is. But, it is really very great. :D
