I have to say this was one of the best days I have had in China so far.

Olympic Fever
After living in Beijing for almost a year, we thought we should at least try to get to the Olympic Park once. I have to say I was completely blown away - the buildings were amazing, but it was the emotion there that touched me. I look at the work and the organisation that had to happen for the Olympics to be a success and you can almost touch the pride of the Chinese people as you walk around this place.

Love the angles of the buildings. glad you got to check it out
I always said I would take my kids to China in 2009 - after the Olympics - to see all of the stadiums and cool structures. Such grand work. I love how you captured both the new and the traditional (people, the bike).
Donnah--I am assuming that is the "Bird's Nest". I love the shot with the bicycle--it really gives scale and dimension to that amazing building! Wonderful!!
These are great! I love the bicycle.
Awsome captures.
I love the bike shot in from of the huge modern building!
I am in such awe of the transformation they had to create for the event. I love all of the details you captured in these shots.
As always - love your shots of your part of the world! Amazing architecture! And love the family shot!
