Still Can’t Believe That

the 2014 Winter Olympics are being held in Sochi, Russia.  The same place where I, as a little kid growing up in Baku, vacationed!
I remember very little but, thanks to my parents and all of the stories they’ve told me over the year, I met many great and interesting people at this magical city by the Black Sea.

This was the Mascot I remember most from the 1980 Olympics.  The year is very special to me as it’s also the year that we immigrated to the US!

This year, organizers of the 2014 Winter Olympics have picked the leopard, the hare, and the polar to represent the Games as mascots
