London 2012 {Part 2}

Monday, 13 August 2012

Warning! this is again ALL about the Olympics and not craft related at all! 

This is it, London 2012 is now finished. But just to live it one more time, here are some pictures from Saturday night events at the Olympic Stadium. It is dubbed over here as Super Saturday 2 - and it was definitely one of the most exciting events I have ever attended. I spent more than half of the event standing, cheering, singing. It was unbelievable. The pictures speak for themselves... For those who love the Olympics as much as I did, here are some snaps...

Proud to be British, clearly...

That can only mean one thing...

And Bolt!
 PS: I will try to upload some other pictures on the MiH Facebook page - I have taken quite a few... 
PSS: Craft posts and life in general will now resume as normal.. 

London 2012 {Part 1}

Thursday, 9 August 2012

Warning: this a non craft post, and it is ALL about the Olympics!

So in case you have not noticed (you may have never been on my blog), I am really into the Olympics, not as much as Mr MiH, of course, but pretty hooked nonetheless. Let's not talk about Team France's performance however. I will support my team whatever happens, but seriously we need some gold medals here and now! Moving on.. Last Sunday, I had the opportunity to visit the Olympic Park and here are some snaps for those of you who may not have the chance to visit it!

We are off to the Olympic Stadium again on Saturday - and this time, we are going in! Hope to get some good pictures of the athletics finals!
