Wow! You were really so lucky! I also heard that the Beijing Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games did a lot of work to create an Olympic atmosphere in Beijing. They've made a lot of improvements in public transportation, the city's water supply, and the construction of sports facilities. To make sure that the Olympics will be a surefire success, the Beijing municipal government even came up with a special plan in case of an emergency situation with the water supply. It looks like the entire country, from high to low, really puts a lot of importance on the preparations for this great gathering!
