Ahem...
Closing Ceremonies celebrate the culture of the place where the games has taken place.  
Here in Blogville, a place I am most proud to be a part, 
we have many parts to our unique culture.

There are badges and honors...



                                                     

     

  


  
There are memes for every day of the week or for every month in the year...

        
       


There are plays, games, challenges and events...


                   


     



There's even a boot camp and a gardening club!


Some of us have special talents, special trainings, 
special jobs, and special Saturday steps... 

George and Tess
Thunder

           

Bailey
And some a keen fashion sense...

Stewey     

Jazzi

Lorenza



   
And, most importantly, there is much much much love and respect...


                         
                                                                 


                             



AND NOW
...ON WITH THE SHOW...

OOOOOOHHH....

......AAAAAAAAHHHH

....OOOOHHHHH

Traditionally, the torch is extinguished to symbolize the ending of the games.
Sarge has volunteered his services to set out the flames.
Take it away Sarge.


Nice work!  I know you've been holding it in for a while.  BOL!  
Thanks Sarge and I hope you didn't get singed!

And now, on to our Mayor Mr. Frankie Furter for his closing remarks.  Mr. Mayor?

  30. Finn,

    What a wonderful wonderful post! I especially love the part about Blogville! As a relatively new resident of Blogville, I have enjoyed meeting other residents and learning about its wonders. I am so proud to be a part of Blogville and the Blogville Olympics!

    Many thanks to Finn and the many other Olympic hosts and athletes! I haven't been able to attend as many events as I would have liked due to my mom's broken arm and surgery (talk about bad timing), but I hope to get to more of the posts and enjoy them after the fact.

    your pal,
    Garth
