2026 Winter Olympics/ My take

[Forevermarypoppins]

They were awesome!! The WINTER OLYMPICS are my favorite!
Congrats to all of our winners and competitors. Everyone can always claim they were an Olympian!
I'm watching the Exhibition Gala of ice skaters right now and they are all so happy ice skating, doing their own thing, no pressure, just doing what they love!
I watched almost every single afternoon/evening. I can't wait for the Men's hockey tomorrow. GO USA!!!
A big shout out for Women's Hockey!! Who knew curling would have its own channel and be on television constantly. Good for them!!! I watched and it looks like fun. I know curling has taken off in my area. To anyone who can look down a mountain and want to ski slalom/ giant slaloms, dear lord, where do you get that courage? All the snowboarders are so acrobatic, it's just amazing! Watching the cross country skiers/ shooters etc. proves they are very athletic people. I know why some were collapsing as the crossed the finish lines!
I'm going to miss all this entertainment next week and can't wait for 2030!

Having spent the fall watching figure skating.... I am worried about the two youngsters....as they continue their pursuits... never been as invested in two olympians so it made this Olympic s special. though also Yuma....catchy name he has

My dear Dad was a big olympic fan and I was blessed to be at the Montreal games (way back when). The thing I always love to see the "loosing teams " so you know how much better the really, really great teams are.

This Olympics makes me question why I haven't tried curling myself. I just found curling to be my new favorite event.

I've always considered Olympics "obscure sports" seriously, in real, everyday life, how often to you think... Gosh when's the next Biathalon tournament? Or Curling? or speed skating... too many to name. I should've taken up obscure sports earlier!

We've enjoyed watching the Olympics, especially the figure skating competitions. DMil was a huge fan, so it always reminds us of the fun we had watching with her through the years.

After watching the snowboarding events, I thanked my kids for never putting me through that experience.

I admit I just watched the curling events and the ice skating, and loved them both. Also watched the last ice hockey game between Canada and the US. What an ending. The winter Olympics have always been my favorite. What wonderful athletes!

Was so fun! Curling is my favorite to watch. Of course had to watch ice skating, hockey, and didn’t miss the Jamaican bobsled team

What an exciting Hockey WIN for team USA!!
I also loved the wonderful sportsmanship that happened throughout the games. That's what it's all about!
I, personally can't dwell on those who did otherwise... Enjoying the closing ceremonies now! THANK YOU ITALY!!
