I can find many images today, from eight and a half thousand miles distant. It's the last day of the Olympic Games in Tokyo. The last bronze medal was won by Molly Seidel, a very courageous woman. The marathon is the longest race - twenty-six miles in a difficult climate (great humidity). Earlier in her career she suffered with an eating disorder and mental illness - but she overcame her difficulties. Great Britain won twenty-two gold medals and, perhaps, Mr. and Mrs. Kenny are the most decorated married couple. Throughout the Games, the Olympic flame burnt in a giant cauldron. At the end, it closed up like a flower and extinguished the fire. There was a giant drum, too, bigger than the drummer. And there was dancing in national costume. Next time the flame will go to Paris.
