2012 Olympic Cauldron

My favorite part of Friday night’s Opening Ceremony – other than the Queen’s chubby corgi dogs – was the lighting of the cauldron. Of course this is always one of the most dramatic parts of the event, but I love the way London 2012′s cauldron designed by Thomas Heatherwick feels more like an art installation than anything else. Brilliant. Check out more photos here.

    That was my favourite part of the ceremony as well. Everything else was a little too campy for me

    I too loved the corgis and the cauldron (in that order)!
