The Greece parade of history was awesome. Although I am sure the Iranians were offended with the float of Alexander the Great leading the phalanx. I got a chuckle when the Greeks decided to omit any reference to the almost 4 centuries of Ottoman rule. At least there is one people in Europe who still are proud of their history even if the contemporaries look bad in comparison.

I remember back expecting the Athens games to be terrible, but they turned out to be one of the best, ever.
