Well, that singer does look like a pink version of Céline Dion in the ESC!

I love her discreet dress lol

That group of singers really need a fashion coach.

Ohhh, again spectacular fireworks!

I'm sooo looking forward to the London Games. Such a vibrant city!

The Greek flag is raised, the most formal part of the ceremony starts.

Since TVE-1 doesn't seem especially interested in the closing ceremony (4 commercial breaks so far ¬¬), I'm going to watch it via TVE-Teledeporte (although i'm a bit bored ).

I love those orange fans the spectators are waving

Spanish commentators praise the performance of the British team in these Games

The aquatic centre looks stunning!

Spectacular fireworks over the stadium announce that the closing ceremony has begun!

With the Games just a few minutes away from being officially closed, I must admit that I'm pretty satisfied with our team's performance in Beijing. We haven't won as many medals as in Athens (18 to 19), but we have won 2 more golds. We still aren't able to arrive to the apparently unreachable mark of 20 medals but, who knows, maybe we will finally surpass in London the metals obtained in Barcelona'92 Here's our historical ranking (G-S-B: T) 1. Barcelona 1992 13-7-2: 22 [first by total number of medals] 2. Beijing 2008 5-10-3: 18 [third by total number of medals] 3. Atlanta 1996 5-6-6: 17 4. Athens 2004 3-11-5: 19 [second by total number of medals] 5. Sydney 2000 3-3-5: 11 6. Moscow 1980 1-3-2: 6 7. Los Ángeles 1984 1-2-2: 5 8. Seoul 1988 1-1-2: 4 9. Amsterdam 1928 1-0-0: 1 9. Paris 1900 1-0-0: 1 10. Antwerp 1920 0-2-0: 2 10. Montreal 1976 0-2-0: 2 11. Helsinki 1952 0-1-0: 1 11. London 1948 0-1-0: 1 12. Los Ángeles 1932 0-0-1: 1 12. Munich 1972 0-0-1: 1 12.

So simple and solemn, thanks for sharing!
