The Closing Ceremonies

Last evening I watched the closing ceremonies of the Paris Olympics.  The show itself was rather silly, and, not to be too mean, kind of boring.  On the other hand, it was uplifting to see the hundreds of athletes from around the globe having fun and the time of their lives.  


It was also a treat to see scenes of Paris.  What a beautiful city.  I’ve never been and probably never will visit, but it is truly spectacular.


We discussed what they would showcase in L.A. in four years.  Participants  certainly won’t be swimming in the Los Angeles River.  I guess they could show the freeways and the LaBrea Tar Pits.  Maybe the homeless.
