Although this year was particularly bad for them, they tend to do much better in the Summer Olympics. They won 37 medals in 2004.

Seeing as I am not the biggest fan of the Olympics, I guess I was disappointed that you did not cover National Foundation Day in more detail. But I still enjoyed the show. ごめなさい。Sorry! don't mean to be negative, as it was still a good show. O-genki de Steve :-) Mmmmmm!

I'm so looking forward to watching men and women figure skaters competing this time. It's such an exciting event! I am a figure skater myself, except I'm not quite sure about hitting a quad jump....:roll: Jonas, are there any famous figure skaters from your country? I think athletes from any participating countries all like to win :cool: Ganbare! Great lesson! I’m so looking forward to watching men and women figure skaters competing this time.
