we were watching the YOG 2010 opening ceremony last night, and I told my son that I've got tickets for his sis & I to the swimming event.
it was unfortunate that tickets for basketball for all days are sold out. So I managed to get 2 more tickets for Tennis. He is in the midst of his GCE 'O' Level prelims, so trying to get a date and time for events is difficult.
Sometimes the time & date is good, either he's got a paper on that day or the tickets are sold out.
very interesting for everyone, mothers, fathers and of course the kids.
if you think it's still like what we went through in our army days, this is now very different, more technical, but the physical fitness part is still there.
the route march is already very different, wearing vast to get them use to marching long distances.
Just got my tickets to YOG Swimming competition. Will be going with my daughter, just want her to experience the competition environment and of course to watch how some of these young but experienced swimmers take on the challenge.
