fan the flames & carry the virtual torch!

Watch the Torch Relay live    So we didn't get to check off  'Attend the Olympics' family bucket list!
More like a realistic staycation instead of our olympic-size vacation...

Well, we still have many ways to enjoy the celebrations.
So, let's charge that e-tablet, log in to our social network accounts, skype with friends, hangout on Google+ , take awesome HD pics from our smart-phones and post to Flickr.

Is there anyway to watch the games in 3D or Real-D?  Our son would enjoy that!

Serving 5 symbolic Olympic foods every viewing! {Hint:  Foods from 5 countries; or favorite dishes by your favorite Olympians; serve food in circular-shaped or olympic-themed dinnerware}

donning our penta(5) olympic-ring gear, too

 Hi5! we're right in the virtual fans stand having fun!

pin it, hangout, post, cloud, iBook, tweet, share and carry the virtual torch!


Let's fan the flames!
