YOUNGER READERS’ BLOG By Marcus Arnold THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH Hello and welcome to this month’s blog. This month my family and I went to the London <strong>2012</strong> Olympics. We went down to London on the train. We arrived at the games at about 1.30pm but we could not get in to the park straight away because we were not allowed to take our bottles of coca-cola in. It was airport security. That is how they described it. Anyway we had to eat our picnic on the floor outside John Lewis, it was yum yum. When we got into the Olympic park, then and only then did we find out how big it all was. We saw the Velodrome, the Copper Box, the BMX track, the Orbit and many more sites that we had only seen on the TV until then. We went down to see the water polo which didn’t start until 6.20pm which meant we had a lot of time to have a look around and we needed it. There was just so much to see. We had our tea in McDonalds. It was the biggest that I had ever seen. It was a temporary building with about 25 counters and my Dad reckons they were serving over 1000 people per hour. It was hard to find a seat but we were served really quickly. Pretty impressive I thought. The first game of water polo was GB versus Russia. Then it was a semi final between Hungary and Spain. Remind me never to sit behind a Hungarian super fan. They were up and down through out the whole match but it wasn’t enough and they lost. They had supported GB in our match so we supported them for theirs. They made an awful lot of noise with hooters, clapping and shouting. It was very exciting being part of such a major sporting event. We came back on the Javelin train which was super fast. We were back home within 2 hours from the water polo ending. Also this summer holidays we have been on two different caravan holidays. We went on many long cycle rides and got in thunderstorms on the way back. The second week was much better with the weather being sun sun sun. We had three barbeques and spent many long hours playing badminton and other games outside. We couldn’t get the TV to work but we didn’t really miss it. Next month I will probably be talking about the Paralympics because we are going to see lots of events next month. Good bye 29
