Hi! well I think is time that we feel very proud of who we are, we can do a really good job if we practice in what we love and do it every single day with passion, those athletes demonstrated that this country can do things better and they gave us a month with a lot of fun and feelings, I hope next time we don't get just 8 medals but 20 or more, congratulations to them and to all the country we have to feel really really proud! They put our country as a spot for potential winners.

London 2012 Olympic Games were a great opportunity to give to the world that we are made, is the best representation we have had throughout history in the Olympic Games with eight medals. While not denying the ability of players like michael phelps swimmer who gave in only 3 Olympic medals nineteen to his country united states. It is a great representative of the sport.

good night
for me the Olympic Games this year were an important step for the country.
I felt proud of Colombia for the first time in life and finally Colombia is known for anything other than drug trafficking.
finally it is very gratifying to see the effort made by the athletes who represented us.
I learned that with hard work and dedication can accomplish many valuable things.
thanks

Hello this is my thinking about the Olympic Games, these games are the most important games in the world that are held every four years, Colombia this year made a great presentation in these games, our country stood out for their medals 1 gold, 4 silver and 3 bronze, but at the Olympic Games are not practiced all sports and more sports in which Colombia is a world power such as skating and soccer games.
These Olympic Games are fair where 254 countries are competing to establish who is the best in sports and Colombian athletes excelled in 8 of these sports, this is the best presentation of our country in the history of the Olympic Games.

The olympics were great, these were the best event of the year which had the first digital transmission. The production was perfect, the smooth movement of the cameras and the high quality in the Image. Definitely they were professionals.
I watched the olympic games online, and the experience was better than on TV because there weren't commentators. The sound was direct and the music accompanied the competition. I could choose the sport that I wanted.
But the most exciting was when the athletes began each competition, the sound of the shot. Is amazing to think that the Olympic athletes from each country competed for their skills. For Example when Bolt ran and broke the world record I was impressed by his speed. I'm happy for Colombian athletes because they won 8 medals in this event.

Ha ha ha it's funny, all of us is talking about the olympics but not about the video, even my last comment... I wrote about the medals that the colombian athletes won :P, It's kind of funny and cute to see those kids talking about a subject that they don't know so much (even me...), but is good that they learn about sports since kids, maybe they could be good athletes in the future and I hope that in Colombia teach the kids that sports can be a good choice too!

Hi everyone!
In my opinion London 2012 has been a fantastic Olympics.I think the openning and the closing ceremony were fantastic due to we could see a great show around the British culture.
I was struck by Colombia's representation, all the atletes were good but Mariana Pajón and her competition was expectacular,she won a Gold medal in BMX, it was so exciting!
Therefore, I think we need to support the Colombian sport and always believe that we can do it!

London and the world were grateful for Usain Bolt to him. by being a living legend, As it promised it. by repeating in the books of records on having completed a triplete gilded in pure speed And by radiating this irresistible charisma that allowed a perfect communion with the fans, Giving him to these Olympic Games a label of memorable.

My respect and recognition for Mr Danny Boyle. Whiout doubt the best opening for many years, the conceptual topic perfect, fantastic details, and detail of the cauldron with the petals of a delegation, is the best symbol. Only missed one thing....Brian May's participation accompanying the children when they sing the hymn.... It has been spectacular.

well i think its great that this year the olympics have been more important than other years at least here in colombia thanks to all the medals that we got and i surely hope we keep getting better and of course we win more and more on the next events...
I think of the olympic games in which we participate with excellent results, leaving our country in a good vantage point our athletes gave their best in order to come to get more than 7 medals are very pleased with the results, that Colombia sample already has a better culture for these events we need is more government support to insentivar athletes who struggle every day to be the name of Colombia very high.

Olimpics means joy to millons of people worldwide, but only to a particular group as the Word Cup, this happiness if global. I hope for our country these eight medals means more support for our athletes.
Hi, I think the olympics this year were very good beginning for the opening that this organization was very good. I also found very good involvement of Colombians back we had the joy of 8 medals. were definitely some very good Olympics but we must improve for the next
Andres Felipe Cespedes Diaz English 4
about the Olympics games in general, I think that is a good place to provide knowledge about different cultures of whole world, in my opinion is good that the sports can be the center of attention just for a while, in this moment is important see other vision of our world, a place where don't exist social differences or cultural differences, a place or moment where people can be saw of the same form, with the same rights and conditions, respect about the Olympics games of this year, I think that London spent a lot of money and the final result was very good with all sceneries, the participation of Colombia was very good and representative, and leave like an experience that the government have to invest more in sports and promote young people to practice some sport, not only for a game or award, only, because is important that people have a healthy culture.

Hi everybody.
I was extremely excited with the olympics in London. 7 Billion people had been seeing to their gamers for wining a medal gold. London did a good work, the start of the biggest olympics definitely was the celebration in Britain.
Next, i have been thinking how will be the olympics of Brasil. I´m sure will be better. If I got a pay rise, I would go to Brasil to the Olympics but I would like arrive with the torch in the Limusina´s Ronaldinho and maybe I will visit to my friend Lula Da Silva.
Bye. See you. :)

Our country had an excellent development and participation in the last Olympics games, this year Colombia won more medals than last years and there were some Colombians who won gold medals like Mariana Pajon who was the winner in BMX, I think that it was amazing because nobody had heard about her and it was a new skill into Colombians games. BMX is excellent so that many people could practice it in a near future. I suppose that Colombians players are going to be more successful in the next Olympics games and win more medals than this year.
My name is DIANA MILENA HERNANDEZ from level V course 626cn.
The Olympic Games is one of the events most important worldwide. The participation of our country, Colombia, has been growing power in a way where we can realize that sport is of a high standard in our country.
These athletes need more support in every way, as they represent a great way nuesto beautiful country where they leave our name on high.
Among the sports in these games, the most prominent are: Athletics, Basketball, Boxing, Cycling, BMX, swimming, esgrimataekwondo soccer.
We are a country potential in sport. The place where the games were developed in 2012, was a fantastic and beautiful.

I think the most important thing of these games, to the people of each country that participated and their governments was to show supremacy in terms of athletic competition over the others countries. They didn´t compete neither money, trophies, nor friendship sports between countries, but to the power and dominion that have the global superpowers over the other countries and clarify which of these one are in the top, it´s also a political issue.
These games gave us unforgettable memories, records, icons that give Olympics games off and great controversy, so we can not forget the good things that gave us this event, thanks to this one, we saw the best athletes in the world, who showed their great skills and talent, most of them did their best effort to achieve their dreams, but a goal even more important that the athletes had, was to give to people to their countries a joy and make them feel very proud.
By the other hand we also saw the magnificent opening and closing ceremony, this showed the ingenuity and creativity of the hosts, we also saw athletes who continue showing their feat as Usain Bolt and Michael Phelps, but unfortunately we can not forget the events that overshadowed the event, like terrorist threats in London, doping cases that took away all the merit to sports competitions, the terrible mistake with the flags of North and South Korea and the disappointment of many people who expected a better result to their athletes. The Olympics also showed us the abysmal gap about the great financial support given to sports in some countries and the limited support in other countries, it also reflects that there are cultural differences in terms of attitude and winning mentality of some athletes, compared with other ones who surrender before to compete, we can not deny that this is definitely a cultural problem, however I am very proud of the Colombian performance who won medals for our country, but we should not be conformists, so the difference of medals with the best countries is too big. I hope that it will be the beginning to get better results in the future, but obviously with the support of the Colombian government.

The results obtained to Colombia in London Olympic games are a historic event, that make colombian people felt very happy and proud, this showed us that the effort, discipline, strenght and the love for a country are necessary to achieve great goals, the Colombian athletes won a gold medal, three silver medals and four bronze medals, with these results they got a record in medals won to our country, this compared with the number of medals won in previous Olympic Games, all the Colombian athletes who represented us, did their best and showed that Colombian sport is being recognized to worldwide level.
This is a challenge to our country, now supporting new sporting talent have to be an obligation to colombian goverment, to Colombia is required to strengthen the sport, in all the different sports where colombian athletes participate, this have to be done with all the necessary requirements for the athletes, with the purpose to get many more medals in the next olympic games in Rio de Janeiro 2016.

The Olympics is an event that helps countries build turístismo, as it attracts people from all over the world to stay in their hotels, knowing its tourist attractions and learn more about this city.

Im think that the Colombian government have to support much more the sports, because we have people with charisma, thirst for glory, encourage, even they are very humble, they love our country and what they do. We need more economic sport support, less to war .
Summarizing, was one of the best Olympic game I heard , Now I’m waiting for the Rio´s 2016 to go , I Hope so.

the olympics games are wonderful, but every time there more countries, with athletes from other countries, They should ban it. one day, I was watching one match of table tennis. argentina vs filandia, but I was confused to see an man blond vs a chinese.

At the last olympics games Colombia made her best performance in the history. This is great for the athletes and for all the people too.
On the other hand I didn’t like the broadcasting that our local TV channels did for this event. After the arriving and consolidation of the Internet, each day the people can realize the poor preparation of the journalist, and how they almost all the time don’t know anything about the things they say.
It’s my opinion probably I’m wrong.

In the Olympic Games we can see the skills of the representatives of each country, this year was great because we could see that Colombia won several medals thanks to the efforts and commitment of each one of our participants who gave their best performance and we, the Colombians, are very proud of our players.

Well, I think it’s a pretty video showing the kids reaction at the video of the Olympics. It’s amazing how children are amazed when they discover new stuff in the T.V. and that they can realize that they can also learn from it.
I’ve seen many children in the video who already knew what the Olympics are for, as also there were children who didn’t knew about it, I was also intrigued how children answer so maturely at the questions, not only because it was their duty, but also because they interacted very easily with the camera. This kind of interviews is really impressive and helpful for people to know how smart a kid can be
The Olympics 2012 were the best for Colombia, where the Colombian athletes showed their strength and courage, this was an example of courage for many people and once again we see that if the state supports the sport can give a hope of peace and cooperation at all a united nation.
I think in general the olympic 2012 for Colombia were a success, I think we should all support people whose efforts make it out of anonymity and give their best to put up the name of Colombia, but especially to excel with their forces in a country with a lot of violence, we hope that someday news about victories, achievements, earnings and less news of wars, murders, etc..

the olimpics in this year particularly makes me feel so exited because I'm sportman around 12 years,ride bike every day and every night, the medals obtained in bike disciplines...wow it's amazing feel proud of who does something similar to what you do.
this reflects the need for a policy change for the sports.
