Beijing Olympics - Beach Volleyball

Melanie and I went with some friends (C, H, B, and J) to Friday’s evening session of Women’s Beach Volleyball.  It was fantastic! The picture above is from the China v Cuba match.  China was quite good (and they beat Cuba, too!). We were lucky to all get tickets to this same event as both H and I applied using our own accounts for the tickets during round 1 of ticket sales way back in August of last year. (or whenever it was)  Sure, we weren’t sitting next to each other, but we were close enough - for the later matches, we were able to consolidate. We missed most of the first match (Germany v Austria) because H “couldn’t find a taxi”, but we made it in time for China v Cuba, so it was fine. For more pictures, go to my flickr site.
