I was very disappointed when I found out that the United States did not win the bid for the 2012 Summer Olympic Games. I would love to take a small vacation and go watch the best amateurs in the world compete, and New York City wold have been the perfect place for this.

Late last week the US committee announced that their City of choice for the 2016 Olympics will be Chicago! The bid against other really nice cities like Madrid, Prague, Rome, Tokyo, and more will not be until 2009, but I am already excited! Chicago is a very nice and beautiful city that would do a great job hosting the games. With the amazing waterfront and busy city atmosphere, there are a lot of things for tourists to do/see when they are not watching the sports. Here is to hoping we host the Summer Olympics in 2016!
