London Calling…
As we all enjoy the Olympics from the comforts of our home, I was hoping to share with my readers some first hand experiences of what is happening in London. So I called up my girlfriend who was headed over to the Olympics to see if she can share some coverage.
My friend said she would be happy to give us some insight of her experiences during her Olympic journey. Over the next few weeks I will share her photos and comments first hand, so we all can feel a bit of the London vibe. Below she shares the Olympic Park at dusk before its transformation.
So, a special shout out and big “Thank You” to my friend, fellow mom and 4 time Olympic Gold Medalist Janet Evans Willson…here are the Olympics through her eyes.
