The Olympics
This was one of those views that made my jaw drop.
That is the ferry coming in from Ireland that you can see in front of Arran.
Now, has anyone been watching the Olympics.
I haven't watched the telly for such an extended time for so long.
I'm getting really into it.
I never would have thought I would have enjoyed it so much.
Right from the opening ceremony which I thought was wonderful. Those wonderful children choirs from Scotland, Ireland, England and Wales, not forgetting that very funny Mr Bean scene and also James Bond with the Queen, and the great final of lighting the huge torch.
I've enjoyed it all!
And the sport - I've seen the cycling, swimming, diving, rowing, gymnastics.
Phew the list goes on!!!
And some of these events are soooo exciting. The woman's cycling, for instance, had me on the edge of my seat cheering them on.
Great stuff!!!!!!
I have to take my hat off to all of these athletes - they are so dedicated and they look as if they are having fun.
Now where is my bike - I feel the need to go out for a cycle :))
Who knows maybe you will see me in the next Olympics in 2016 - ha ha ha.

Have a great day! Sandra
I wrote about the opening ceremony on my blog and I have a clip about the children's choir from Wales that I found on BBC along with a church choir from Wales singing the whole hymn!
In America, we didn't get to see the opening ceremony the way you did, so it was not as good, sad to say (commercials and some of it was completely cut out!) Lucky you in Scotland!
i watched the opening ceremonies...but really haven't watched much since...just the highlights on the news.
BUT if you make it into the NEXT Olympics...i'll watch for sure!! promise! :)
Wonderful picture. Great watching the Olympics opening, and now there have been incidents. Yours.
I have been watching the horses today when I can between cutting the grass and the edges. Too much work to do in the garden. Keep well Diane
