Subj: “Australia, Sydney – we did it!”
Date: Thu Sep 14 22:49:41 EDT 2000
On the other side of the world, right now - at this moment! - Australians are dreaming about the 16/09 opening day of the Olympics.
As you read this, from Sydney to Perth athletes from around the globe are deep into their slumbers, dreaming of being the swiftest,highest, strongest.
My Sydney; Australia, my 2nd country. I am proud, so proud.
It all seems amazing to this Grammie.
Listening to Elsa read yesterday's Sydney Morning Herald articles about the Opera House and the Coat Hanger, Bondi Beach, The Rocks, George Street - we were both in tears, and she has never even been there.
I could see the online pictures (big regret - Elsa's printer has jammed cartridges, so we cannot print out any). Reading one caption brought and brings tears to my eyes - "from Coogee to Bondi" described part of the torch relay. Dear Coogee.
