Yes, these were a great Olympic games (tho horribly expensive), made all the better because of no terrorism, good shows of sportsmanship and little politics in the way.
US viewers will get to view and celebrate the closing ceremonies on Sunday evening. It always makes me sad to see them end...
In the meantime, we still have more snow than SOCHI here in the Midwest...but no mountains, lol!

I'm not fan of winter Olympic games (UEFA Champions League is my song) but Russia made the job very well ! Congrats !
BTW. These were best Olympics for Poland in the history.

The only real politics I know of are pretty major. They outlawed homosexuality, and a few gay people got arrested for it!
