The 2008 Olympic Games

The Olympic games are in full swing and as I was perusing the NBC site for the games, I ran across some pictures I thought were beautiful.

The first is of badminton players Miyuki Maeda and Satoko Suetsuna of Japan, celebrating after their match point during the Women's Doubles
match against a Chineese team.















The next is of swimmer Michael Phelps, who is going for an Olympic record 8 gold medals, celebrating after he and the 4 x 100 meter freestyle relay team won the gold medal in their event.






















And here is another shot of the whole team after the win. Beautiful.














And if you were wondering, here is the current medal count.






















Cheers, and USA all the way.
