London 2012, Day 20 – London
Can it be!? Closing Ceremonies! The final event of the 2012 London Olympics. I finished my story on flag bearer Bryshon Nellum and his coach Ron Allice, the longtime head coach at USC, and you can read it HERE.
Once I get home and take a few days to recharge my battery, I’ll be able to look back on my experience through fresh eyes and write more about what I learned over the past three weeks. But for now, I leave you with my favorite photo from this morning, when I met my friends Lisa and Mike at the London Eye, and my favorite shot from closing ceremonies. We watched as a group from our apartment complex: Bonnie made shrimp scampi; TJ made goat cheese appetizers and we all brought bottles of wine.
What a fun way to go out as a group. When the show was over and we all said our good-byes, I felt like I was leaving summer camp. It was sad to say good-bye to everyone, but I’m so excited to get home to Cali tomorrow and start looking forward to the next big sports event!
