I had huge expectations for opening ceremonies, but this was over the top. First they declared the day a national holiday and closed the entire highway system. Then the hour trip to the stadium was lined with cheering people.
When we got to the stadium and to the marshalling area, all the different Nations were together posing for pictures and singing songs. Ghana was incredible to watch, they had so much fun waiting to go in.
i will upload pictures later.
The number of volunteers and how it made you feel as a participant was incredible.
The internet is hit and miss so I will try to keep updating this through the help of some great friends. We don't have facebook or twitter access here.
