When tickets became avalible for the Paralmypics, I thought it would be amazing to see the final sprints. My brother managed to get these exact tickets which was incredible. I hadn't really though of what it would be like, so I was totally shocked about what an incredible experience it was.
The park itself is vast, and felt like a world festival, with so many different people from all around the world. Such a valuable experience.

The Olympic torch, design by Thomas Heatherwick - a British designer- represents everyone coming together, as each 'tulip' was lit by a different country in the opening ceremony. It reminds me of my school moto 'Membra sumus corporis magni' (We are members of a great body). Heatherwick says that the cauldron represents 'everyone coming together in Peace'.
