What an awesome Closing Ceremony! It was worth paying 100 euro(cheapest seats), a great show with amazing fireworks and a party athmosphere only Greeks can create!
Three hours left before my plane takes off... back to work tomorrow, life goes on!

YES! I will make it to the Athens 2004 Olympic Games Closing Ceremony. At midnight after the Ceremony I will take the metro to Kifissia station where my host will handover my laggage so I can take the bus to the airport. If everything goes well, I will be back in Brussel at 7.15AM
Yesterday evening I managed to buy an A class ticket for the women volleybal finals at the Peace and Friendship stadium. (face value 120 euro, I paid 50 euro only!) The bronze medal match Brazil-Cuba was not really exciting compaired to the gold medal final Russia-China. The five set game was great, China won although I supported the Russian team!


Russia - China volley action!
