Mini mooncakes, anyone? Mid-autumn (or Moon) Festival near, it's so nostalgic. Besides, they are high in protein and low in fat. Recommended for gymnasts. Fillings include eggyolk, red bean, coconut.

今天结束!
看着就美味,不知道都什么馅的
I'm such an inefficient person! So far I'm still beating around the bushes. Tomorrow I'll work on people, which hopefully will be more interesting.
Today is still in the village:
Liuxiang: In the Olympics Village, star power is everywhere. Here at the newsstand, issues of Time (I guess the Asia version) featuring Chinese track star LiuXiang on the cover are sold.

This brings us to the next pictures.

Couples: Australian cyclist Cadel Evans and wife. Gorgeous couple. In a recent French news report, the journalist worries if his country’s young men are going to get any action in the Village. “Everything is perfect here. The only thing lacking is night life.” So far I’m not sure why haven’t given athletes any condoms: is it a message—“focus on training and travel and rest and compete well, don’t go to bed early or with others? While I’m not so concerned about whether the French studs will get lucky, lacking of condoms would be inconvenient for visiting spouse or boy/girlfriends. –UPDATE: I heard that the village will get ten thousand rubbers now? Mhmm, there are 9000 athletes. How do we do the math?

Different teams decorate their new home with some pizzazz.

Czech team has a four-story high banner. Talk about eye-catching, and maybe neck cramp.

As usual, Japanese team has a firing fighting spirit.

Swiss team took along scooters. At first glance I thought they were motorized coolers or motorized grills.

team. I'm not sure which native tribes or groups these pattern represent.

British team brought along a phone booth. Interesting~~~~~ Should we expect Harry Potter, James Bond or Agent 99 came to the opening ceremony?
Aussie boxer has a few tricks up to his sleeves, or pocket. In fact, kangaroos do throw a mean punch. I remember some wildlife TV program showing to kangaroos getting at each other like in the heavy weight championship.
