    It’s bonkers. I like it!
    There’s always a parade into the stadium why not do something different.

    let’s face it we all thought ours would be shĩte! It actually turned out to be amazing

    I agree. More people can watch as well, but they're all getting soaked!

    Looks more atmospheric now it's getting dark and it's all lit up.

    Nice to see all the athletes waving and participating with the audience rather than just taking selfies like they tend to do when they're in a stadium!

    I wonder if they were told they were only allowed one as I felt like each boat had one person with a mobile or stood next to a camera on a tripod.

    I wondered about that, too. It looked quite dangerous, especially with the rain. The people swaying about on 10 meter poles also looked dangerous. In fact, there were quite a few dodgy activities.
