08-08-08 (Lucky number 8) Beijing Opening Ceremony: Parade of Nations

"One World One Dream" fully reflects the essence and the universal values of the Olympic spirit -- Unity, Friendship, Progress, Harmony, Participation and Dream. It expresses the common wishes of people all over the world, inspired by the Olympic ideals, to strive for a bright future of Mankind.
(All differences, controversial politics and/or boycotts aside to cheer on our athletes in the biggest sporting event in the world.)

There are just NO words. These still images of the 2008 Olympic opening ceremony say it all.
...the magnitude of this event, the ancient and modern images of China, the precision, the complexities, the costumes, the art, the colors, the lights, the culture, the sounds, the fireworks, the artists, the engineering...

Spectacular, amazing, overwhelming, glorious, breath-taking, stunning, Wow!
(London has its work cut out for them in 2012.)
GO, TEAM U.S.A.
