Winter Olympics 2026-Cortina, Italy

Anyone watching the Winter Olympic ceremony in Cortina, Italy?

Looks spectacular :heart_eyes:

8 African countries are participating in these games. Also, Jamaica made it this year in the Bobsleigh. :grinning_face:

I didn’t know quite a few South American nations are participating such as Brazil and Bolivia.

The Canada team look like they are wearing their duvets :joy:

Snoop dogg is supporting Team GB in the Curling. He is a big fan of Curling :joy: :clap:t3:

The Italian team looked dressed as if they are coming out of Belmarsh prison to do exercise. They remind me of Ronnie Barker in ‘Porridge’ tv show. :see_no_evil_monkey: :joy:

The music is amazing. Waiting for Andrea Bocelli

The scarves and the huge lettering are a bit much for me, but otherwise I think it’s quite pretty.

You’ve probably seen this story about Gus Kenworthy’s protest against ICE

But the thing that surprised me is what neat ‘hand’ writing…
