It was commented early about Dutch fans, but after watching speed skating last night I have to say it myself. Dutch fans are awesome! It was great. There was a huge mass of orange in each area of the rink. It's so wonderful.

did you see ice-scating yesterday??? Yep, that was great!! All Chinese couples were fantastic, though I loved the one who skated on "Phantom" (guess why.... ;D) And the Chinese girl that fell, wow, that was great! (though I'm still wondering what happened to our Italian couple, why weren't they there?? ) EDIT: I found out on another forum... They don't partecipate to "artistic skating" but to "dance" (forgive me if the technical terms aren't correct... )

The Italians will be competeing in Ice Dance which is basically ball room dancing on ice. I preferred the Chinese team that took the Bronze, but then again I have always adored them. I'm just happy they were physically able to compete there. I didn't expect them to medal at all.

Stacy will be very happy. Canadian Figure Skater Jeffery Buttle, won an unexpected Bronze medal today.
Canada also picked up 2 silvers in speed skating (men's & women's team pursuit), and also another bronze in women's skeleton.

Congrats!! I heard Korea got just a few medals...but I am still very happy lol and the best news for South Korea, is that the Speed Skating is far from over. If I am not mistaken there is quite a bit of Short track left & that's what they excel at.
