My Spanish couchsurfer, got us a ticket at a travel agency secretly hidden in Novotel Hotel.
I'm excited to see the Athletics Events this Friday nights. And yes, I'll post the pictures here.
The original price is 200 but we bought it for 300 each. But I didn't pay. He paid it for me as a gift of my hospitality! ;)

Olympic Games: Day 5
At the Subway, Line 10 / 7:25 a.m. / On my way to school.
When you enter the subway, three men were handing out newspapers to everyone for FREE.
And so..... everyone in the subway.... reads... well, eager to know the latest medal count.

I passed by this afternoon at the venue for BOXING event.
The lady you see on your right and sitting on an elevated damn chair, instructed the crowd where to line up and she's real tough. She might look petite but a real ass kicker. She shouts like a batallion commander even with a megaphone. :))

Why all wearing white caps?
Hmmmnnn.... to easily identify their group and to avoid getting lost in the sea of people.
Yes, there's a local tour guide with them.

Then, I saw this white guy selling his boxing tickets to the Thai. The flat price on the ticket is 30 RMB and he sold it for 200 RMB.

Not far from the boxing venue is the Worker's Stadium. At 7:00 p.m. tonight, USA and Mexico played football. I dunno who won.
And I dunno, what's the connection of this Canadian flag here. ;)
