My Life In Focus

For all the Chinese folks out there – today is a big day so go and buy your lottery ticket… you may just get lucky… make sure your ticket is filled with 8’s!

Tonight is the start of the long anticipated Summer Olympics hosted in none other than Beijing, China – how’s that for good luck and good feng shui?  I’ve been waiting for this all year long and it will mark the first time that the Olympics will be aired with extensive HD coverage.  I can’t wait to see all the swimming heats on my nice big flat screen in HD, it’s going to be awesome. 

The best part in all the Olympic excitment is that all that I will be seeing on televsion in the next 2 weeks that is being aired in Beijing, I will get to see at the end of this year — except that it may all be covered in snow.  Beijing is the first leg of the Adventures in Asia saga and our time there will be very limited because we will be a part of an actual tour group, so I want to be sure to take note of all the sites and be very selective about what it is that I want to see when I get there and have the time to go roaming around outside of the designated tour times.

135 days left until my adventures begin!
