I'm just enjoying the Rio Olympics, aren't you? Unfortunately, I didn't see the complete opening ceremony (saw over half). I fell asleep, but not because I was bored. I'll be drinking coffee during the closing ceremony to make sure I'm awake for the entire program.
We're now into the second week which includes one of my top favorite sports to watch, track and field. So I'll be riveted to the tv for these next few days.
I think many of the uniforms worn during the opening ceremony (the ones I saw, and the ones I found online) for the Olympics were just on the mark. Colors and silhouettes were fun and somewhat experimental, if that can be said, for the start of a world competition.
Shout out to the Canadian medal winners! And to the other medal winners from a few other countries I was also rooting for! Here are just a few of the winning uniforms. Wish I could post all my favorites.
Till next time and blog!
I must still be missing Fifa, because I decided to look for traditional clothing from different countries yesterday. It seems it takes special events like the Olympics or Fifa World Cup soccer competitions to cause people to realize just how big and diverse this world is. And I say diversity is wonderful!
This big world has become a small world in terms of the fact that television, magazines, and travel has influenced people of many countries, if not all, to dress alike. Everyone, for example, must know of the denim jean by now,
and the t-shirt! Anyway, let's appreciate the images of traditional clothing from five different parts of the world today, one of which is Spain, the Fifa World Cup winning country!
