they did a fantastic job with Sydney 2000 so I'm sure Australia will pull it out of the bag again. Only a 32 year wait between Games though... I'm sure there are better countries who've had to wait a lot longer.

…it was such an uplifting summer when we had them here……the feeling was amazing in schools and for our children and in towns and villages with all of the Olympic themed events….it was a huge inspired physical and mental well being year…if only that could be captured in a bottle, that Olympic feeling…

India, China, Qatar and Germany were the other bidders so not not a great choice

i'd rather out of those Germany was chosen, due to better time zone

Lucky Australia.

It's going to be a chore to watch live events again due to the time zone. But congrats to Brisbane!
