![]() | Hi, friends, the exciting year of China is coming soon. We're all waiting for the grand sports event in 2008 - the 29th Beijing Olympics. Will you go to Beijing to see the 2008 Olympics or just plan to make a Beijing Trip to have a look on the modernized fire-new city? :))![]() |

![]() | Hi Melody, Like Meng, I also have no time to see the great Beijing and Olympic Games. I think many people in China like us need to work at that time, especially for those not work in Beijing. To host the games in 2008, Beijing has really changed a lot. Change for the better. If I have time, Beijing must be a destination for me to travel. |

![]() | It is great that Beijing has the Olympics in 2008. For the ordinary person though, I think they will have to watch it on TV as the prices to attend are likely to be set at international levels, and if you do not live in Beijing and need accommodation... forget it! I lived in Sydney during the 2000 games and watched it on TV... no transport problems, no crowds, and I could sit in a comfortable chair and drink a beer or tea whenever I wanted it, In the time it takes to travel to an event and get home again I could watch 3 or 4 differnt events on TV. |

![]() | Wise plan, apault, If some bosum friends are around you when watching the game at home, that would be more exciting I think. :). I also haven't time and money to watch it on spot, however, I would watch some games if I have some spare time. I like the gymnastics sport best, hope then I have no work. Haha... |

![]() | Not at all! I plan to stay as far away from Beijing as possible to avoid the crowds, pollution, and traffic. I'll probably really enjoy watching it from Canada! It will be very exciting though. I just can't imagine Beijing, already overcrowded, will be like with all the extra visitors during the summer time. |

![]() | Well, I live in Beijing, but I plan on spending the Olympics on a mountainside behind my in-laws' village. Maybe I'll watch some of it on tv, though. |

![]() | Definitely I have to work at that time. Most probably I will watch the matches on TV at home. But still I expect that I could come to Beijing in person to feel what exactly people there feel. :) |
