Oh well...at least there was something beautiful!

In the Winter Olympics I love to follow Figure skating.
Last week we saw the men's side and Swedish Alexander did such a great job!! It was fun to see that the crowd was with him, then again he has roots in Russia. Still it was nice to see him skating too!
Today it was time for the women to skate. I have had hopes for Sweden and Viktoria Helgesson, as we only have one female skater at the Olympics. I was surprised they chose Viktoria when her younger sister Joshi, won the 2013 Swedish nationals!
But what a disappointment, of course it takes nerves to be there and all. But to think about it. At the Olympics ONLY the best can be there and what a miss by the Swedish skater. It's was tragic and sad to watch!!! She ended up 27 of 30!!!

But we could see many other skaters, among them we had the Korean skater Yuna Kim!
Her program was flawless, such a beauty to watch, it almost gave me goosebumps!
I cannot show the video in the blog, but please follow this link and you can watch it for yourself in case you missed it, This is true beauty on ice!
It's gonna be fun to see the rest tomorrow! ^^
