Iceland just lost the final game in Handball at the Olympics.
They lost to France .
Iceland ( pop. 300 thousand ) played well ,but the French ( pop. 60 million ) played better.

Iceland has won three medals - since the beginning of modern
Olympics. -- 1 silver and 2 bronce.
Triple jump in 1956, judo in 1984, pole vault in 2000.

Every Icelander has been watching the game - and the local time is 9 in the morning.

Here are a few photos i took last night --- at the cultural night in Reykjavik
In response to assignment: Beijing Fan Zone
