    The Water Cube

    Aquatic Centre in Beijing.

    Am I the only one who thinks it looks like a giant Sealy Posturepedic?




    AB thinks i'm funny .. but surely it's what everyone else is thinking too.

    Though I do love it when they do the changing lights/colour thing behind the presenter on Channel 7.

    Indeed it does. How disappointing though to find that its really one of those water beds, that's hell on your back!

    Better yet, in Spanish the word for "bucket" and the word for "cube" is the same ("cubo") and so, it's hilarious when you watch the commentary from the various Spanish-speaking channels as they refer to "The Water Bucket."

    OK, maybe you had to be there.
