It's been amazing. I live in Melbourne, and by co-incidence our holiday in NSW has fallen over the Commonwealth games. I have been so jealous that I couldn't be home for most of this, but we made up for that on Saturday when we got back. We went in to the city and walked along the Yarra - the whole of the Federation square and Birrarung Marr area has been used for festivities, activities, events - it's a carnaval atmosphere and such fun. We went to the athletics finals at the MCG together with 83000 other people and it was wonderful.
