The winter Olympic games are every four years. This year the Olympic games are in Sochi Russia. I have not watched any Olympic games. I don't know who has won any medals because I have not watched the Olympic games I don't know any country's that have won any medals. Alpine skiing, biathlon, cross country, curling, figure skating, freestyle skiing, ice hockey, luge, short track, and speed skating are all the Olympic sports I can name. My favorite Olympic sport is figure skating and alpine skiing. My country is Mexico, but they are not in the Olympic games. Yes it is good for a country to hold the Olympic games because there is a lot of tourism and a lot of money is spent at these games.

The winter Olympic game was take place in pyeomgchang, South Korea January 29 to February 5, 2013. Winter Olympic games are the biggest all sport events at 2013. Athletes form all over the countries share in the winter game events with no race limits. The games I watched so far most popular were the four-horse with four-wheel chariot race. Winners Olympic of horse races were the owners not allowed playing game. There was late a winner team are European power such as Norway and Germany are the winner team in winter Olympic sports games and also Australia and Canada are finding success in the new sports because they win two medal. But watched the winter Olympic Games in 2013, I didn’t get three or four games about it (meaning), are table tennis, weightlifting and water polo. But if I know how to play table tennis I would like to make my favorite sport in my life time. In my country most people like to play table tennis. I think the table tennis would be holding the events in small Olympic Games in my country.

The winter Olympic is taking place in Russia this year. Russia and China have been earning a lot of medals for their countries. Curling, figure skating, ice hockey, snowboard, speed skating, bike riding and swimming are a few of other games that are taking place in this year’s Olympic. I mostly enjoy watching volleyball, soccer and Tennis Olympic Games. Iranian Olympic players have always been better in group games than individual games. Volleyball is one of those few group games that Iranian Olympic teams are good at. It is always a big advantage for the country that holding the Olympic event, because their team could have their best days in their own field, and have the most fans to keep them cheered during the game.

The winter Olympic 2014 start Fabruary7 until Fabruary23 in Sochi, Russia. I like to watch the score football so far and I like the Germany team. Also, many countries win medals like Norway, Netherland, USA, and Russia. I can name some of the game in Olympic like curling, ice hockey, figure skating, freestyle, ski jumping. I really don’t have any favorite game because I don’t have time for it. In addition, my country is not in the winter Olympic 2014. It is very good for a country to hold the event so they can do a lot of money and help to build their country.

The 2014 Winter Olympic Games are taking place in Sochi. They will be going on from February 7th, to February 23rd. The games I have watched were: biathlon, figure skating, and ice hokey. As of today, Germany is in first place, Norway is in second place, and Netherlands is in the third place. There are 90 countries that participate in the Olympic Games. The USA team won 20 medals, including 6 gold medals, 4 silver medals, and 10 bronze medals. Overall, we got the fourth place. We still have time until the end of the games, so I think it is still possible for us to win. There are 15 sports in the Olympic Games. The sports I know are: curling, speed skating, ice hokey, snowboard, biathlon, etc. My favorite sport out of all of them is ice hockey. I always get excited when it starts. I used to live in Russia, now I live in USA. The teams of both these countries are traditionally strong in the winter sports. This is very good for the country that hosts the Olympic Games. For the city Sochi, it is good because after the Olympic Games end, Sochi will be a world ski resort with good infrastructure.
