Spot the Olympic Torch! You have to look very carefully, but it's there somewhere.
In my defence, I had a 36lbs three and a half year old on my shoulders, an 18 month old child asleep in the buggy by my side and I was being jostled and pushed by a crowd of thousands! Not ideal photo taking conditions. I've got serious torch envy... there are blog posts almost every day with the most fantastic, clear photos of the Olympic torch *sobs*
Ok here they are again, now I've sharpened them up a bit and pointed out the torch! What do you think?
They're still not great but at least I got two photos of it.

Here are a few better photos of our 'Once In A Lifetime Olympic Torch Experience'...

DeleteI love that you shared these photos! They definitely capture the feeling of the event - so what if you had to point out where exactly the torch was! Good on you for taking your children to experience it.
