What was the story with the Opening Ceremony for the Commonwealth Games in Melbourne, Australia yesterday? Those koalas were freaky and probably scared little kids!
There were hundreds of thousands of people beside the river and, as I understand it, pretty much all the accommodation in Melbourne is booked out by international travellers during the period of the Games.
Most of the spectators on the river left early because they were not aware that there was a further performance/demonstration following the ceremony in which the athletes entered the famous MCG. This meant those people missed the fireworks finale which, I may add, was spectacular!
See the reports here and here for coverage of the Opening Ceremony of the Commonwealth Games in Melbourne.
