Direct Flight - Paris to LA

Mondo left the ground to soar 
in the Olympic games of twenty-four.
So, next Olympics, he would not be late, 
He came down again in twenty-eight.

A nice tribute to the games. Germans won steeplechase, by the way. I hope all athletes had a good time.

Okay. The Olympics seem to be very exciting this year. I have seen some on TV which it is advertised or on the news. Thanks for sharing this one with us. Sara K

I live in Los Angeles. So, I got to see the Olympics in person in 1984, and will have another chance in 2028. Once, I looked through my dad's old things and found an old ticket stub for the 1932 Olympics in Los Angeles.
