  1. Well. Having gotten it a bit at a distance a few comments about my experiences Travel: Very happy. Flying to and from was a breeze (the plane home slighty delayed). The same can be said about getting around in Milano. Getting around outside was of course slightly harder, especially with some delays back from Antholx (but i guess that's not a big surprise when a lot of people leave a place in the mountains) Atmosphere: Very happy around the venues, but it's also very clear that it's smaller than the Summer games. People weren't following the events wherever you went. Alcohol certainly made a difference between Paris and now. Sadly did experience a few who should certainly have stopped a couple of beers earlier. The logistics at the venues: Very easy to see that Santagiulia is new and absolutely not a perfect venue. Seems like some kinks were fixed when I got there, but there's still stuff to work out. The food at the Milano venues were meh and there were quite some lines. Tesero was a chaos when it came to getting food, but the quality was slightly better at the skiing venues.
  2. Jasmin Holtermann from the danish curling team has decided to retire
  3. Remember hearing that while getting something to drink behind the stands. My one moment on screen was partying with Tina before - Was supposed to high-five an American fan but a drunk dane just kept getting in the way... And let's not forget the freeze-cam!
  4. Yeah. Felt rather charming looking for team bases while on the bus But yeah. Saint-Jean-de-Sixt should be the village for biathlon and cross-country skiing
  5. With 5 Olympic Villages planned I would guess that some will be rather basic as well. Meanwhile it is also partially the nations themselves making those decisions to go for a hotel instead.
  6. Well. All the events that I saw live and the historic Danish medal (though I still haven't quite gotten over the disappointment of not getting a ticket for it) Especially Jonna Sundling in the team sprint and Fähndrich's hunt and the weather during the Nordic Combined team sprint Of the ones I didn't get to watch live I would say the women's skiathlon and the monobob.
  7. Did she only vote for Won to give you the chance to write that?
  8. But let's be honest. At least half leaves the venue before. Also have to say that the podiums were placed in a way that certainly were for the VIP's. Honestly felt rather off to be on the main stand at Antholz and seing them from the side and in Tesero it felt miles away. Personally I don't mind a medal plaza. But there's no doubt that it isn't ideal with the games spread out as much which it will afterall also be in 2030
  9. While it certainly helps, I don't think it's quite that easy
  10. But it's not without reason that Olympic Blues is considered a thing for the athletes. It's rough for us fans, but for the athletes who have been training for it all their life it's often worse
  11. I'm strongly considering going for a prolonged weekend. Will happy cheer for Bruna again if it happens
  12. I think a lot of us know the feeling. Feeling rather sad right now. Post-olympic blues coming up
  13. Yeah. A handful of different operas including Madame Butterfly
  14. The Danish commentators haven't shut up for more than a couple of seconds a time
  15. Interesting that Ebba is both flag bearer and will be given her gold medal here
  16. Jens Weinreich is kind of a loudmouth, but he does know his things about what's going on in sports politics. And it does have kind of the same issues as canoe slalom in the summer games (expensive venue that a lot of countries wouldn't use after the Games)
  17. The Swedish bosses will be kicking themselves for their decisions to send skiers home!
