    <description><![CDATA[08-08-2008.  The day we've all been waiting for.  The factories are closed, the cars are parked away.  The buildings are ready, the skies are blue (hopefully).  The world has arrived in Beijing and we at ChinesePod are here to cheer everyone on.  Jiayou Olympics.  Jiayou China.  Listen to this podcast and celebrate the opening of the 2008 Summer Olympic Games in Beijing with us.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[<p>Haha! What a clever concept. I am sure the Ellies will get a kick out of this (and as always, learn much from it). I know I sure did! I am so so so so so so so... excited for the 奥林匹克! I will be sure to watch the games on TV! 奥林加油! 大家加油!</p>

        <description><![CDATA[<p>Living in Beijing, I am really excited. I have a few tickets for&nbsp;track and field semis and finals on various days and cannot wait to see them, including watching the 110 m hurdler Liu Xiang in front of his local fans and the expectation of 1.3 billion Chinese willing him on. Should be awesome.</p>
<p>I had better wear a red and yellow outfit that day !.</p>]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[<p>Awesome lesson, almost feel like I'm there in People's Square with you guys!</p>
<p>Wish I could make it to some of the events but wasn't able to get any tickets--and heard some people actually bought tickets from what they thought was a reputable site online, but turned out the tickets were fake and they lost their money. Hope nothing more serious than this happens.</p>
<p>Really like the supplementary vocab for this lesson:</p>
<p>Tong yi yi shi jie, tong yi ge meng xiang!!!</p>
