Saturday, August 20th
Behind our hotel is an Olympic Sculptural Park. It always looks neat when we go by so we decided to take a walk through it on our day off of therapy and it was amazing! So beautiful, complete with Willow trees, streams, bridges and many sculptures of Olympic athletes. We all took turns posing with various athletes and Sarah and Bridget did cartwheels with the gymnastics team. As we walked through we also found rides for children and a lake with paddle boats. People repeatedly stopped us to take their picture with Sarah. One group of girls were so giddy about Sarah that they kept following us around like paparazzi.
We decided to take a paddle boat out on the lake. Jeff held Cooper, Sarah steered and Bridget peddled. We paddled around and other boats began driving over to us to take pictures of the Americans! We went near a beautiful bridge with 1,000's of flowers and lily pads and even drove under another bridge. As we came around the ben the group of girls were waiting along the shoreline to wave to Sarah. They kept shouting "BEAUTIFUL" to her :o)
We also saw many wedding couples taking their pictures in the park - such a beautiful setting!
