Olympic Final Preparations
The Boston Globe has another set of eye-popping pictures of Olympic preparations in Beijing and other spots around China where events will be hosted.
Final preparations for the 2008 Summer Olympics are in full swing in Beijing. This includes completing hundreds of construction projects, reconstructions, pollution controls, cultural training, and a general “beautifying” of greater Beijing. Rehearsals and drills take place daily as Chinese citizens hurry to finish up – after all, the whole world is coming soon. The Olympics are set to begin on August 8th.
