The Olympics in Colombia are huge! Only, unlike here in the US, they watch every sport no matter who is competing. Here we focus on our own country's stars. There, they know the names of stars from all over in all sports. My father in law was telling me about a South Korean female weightlifter that he saw win the Gold. Did we even know that there was a South Korean female weightlifter, I ask? Anyway, Colombia won their first medal of the 2008 games -- a silver in weightlifting. Diego Salazar was the first Colombian male since 1988 to win a medal. So, enjoy the picture gallery by going to the following link and clicking on Ver galera.

Very cool! Thanks for the links! My sister-in-law has had the TV on every second the olympics has been on and she could probaly name all the events and winners from other countries, too. She's an olympic fanatic! We have yet to tune in, but that is simply because our family has been busy with other summer activities.
