Hubby and a few of his colleagues and managers were invited to the opening ceremonies and were shown on TV for about half a second. Anyway, two of our friends are living on the top floor of a building which is right beside the building that BBC is using for their filming. We wives were invited to watch the opening ceremonies from this prime top floor view. The majority of people in the building were from TV stations from around the world.
We live just behind Greenwich Station. Greenwich Park is hosting all the equestrian events, so the park is closed and so are some of the roads. They've put porta potties here for the hoardes of people doming through.
The stadium from the DLR train.
Crowds at Stratford Station.
Lots of police around
