The Olympics are at our doorstep again. I have really been looking forward to it. I’ll be super glued to TV for the next couple of weeks. My favorite sports to watch are of course swimming and waterpolo. Now that I’m living in Australia I am cheering for two countries; both Holland and Australia. It’s giving me a bit of mixed feelings to be honest. Secretly I want the Dutchies to win.

Dutch swimmer Pieter v/d Hoogeband would like to write history by winning the 100 meter freestyle for the third time in a row. I hope he wins, but the competition is enormous. There are so many good swimmers. I think the Aussies will win a lot of gold medals, but I’m really hoping that some of the Dutch swimmers will get a medal too.

I can’t wait for the games to start. How awesome would it be to have home theater sconces and big screen TV set up for it? Oh well, I guess our own TV and couch will do…

Are you going to watch the Olympics and what is your favorite sport to watch?
