2 DAYS TO GO 09/12/00

Subj: 2 days to go

It was wonderful talking to Mike today (he and Kerry have been silent as clams for the past few month). What joy it was to hear the excitement in his voice about the Games and seeing the torch. Mike, Kerry and Karen went to a friend’s house to watch. Mike had to go to work, but Kerry and Karen were able to stay for what sounded like a bang-up breakfast. The torch and breakfast - sounds like a great combination to this Gramster.

It is really happening!

I remember when Sydney put in the bid and how the city celebrated when it was named. This is a time that this sometime Australian will never ever forget.

To all the organizers, volunteers & athletes - good on ya, mates!
