How is the Beijing Olympic Village

28th July marked the opening of the Beijing Olympic Village, and Chinese athletes attended the ceremony and moved in on the same day. Yao left America and appeared in the event. Finger crossed he will not yell at his team members during match. Liu Xiang, who won 110m hurdles in 2004 Athens Games, looks fine and relaxed. It was a surprise he won last time. Good Luck to him.
The village is newly built, costing a lot of money, branded as luxury building by BBC’s report in a not good tone. However, since this is the first time China host Olympics, the government did try most efforts to impress the world, of course in priority to provide athletes a comfortable accommodation. We are happy about that.

    Hi — this is a really interesting blog, I’ve added it to my feed reader. Is it independently run or associated with the chinese government?
