Beijing is going to be on par w/ SLC and Sochi there IMO. (For all the issues w/ Sochi their figure skating / short track venue and their primary ice hockey venue were gorgeous) Ted 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heywoodu 13,548 Posted September 18, 2021 #29 Share Posted September 18, 2021 I guess these things will start to look better once it's filled with snow, the grandstands are in place, all the Olympic decoration is done, there are people, and so on. Right now - or at least on the photos - of course most still look like giant, half-finished building projects, but surely that'll get better Ted 1 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
